The markings were discovered on the doors at the mosque's entrance, according to the report. Police are treating the matter as a vandalism investigation.
For Vancouver residents, the case is one to follow because it concerns damage to a house of worship in their own city and is now in the hands of investigators. Mosques in Metro Vancouver serve congregations across many neighbourhoods, so where the incident happened will matter to those nearby.
