PROVO, Utah (AP) — Police say the home and car of a Provo man who supports Donald Trump were vandalized.

Provo police spokeswoman Nisha King said Friday that whoever is behind the crime could face felony charges of criminal mischief.

The Daily Herald in Provo reports (http://bit.ly/2eaSTCf ) that Loy Brunson woke up Thursday morning to find someone had painted a profanity along with "Trump" across his garage door.

The vandals also painted "AmeriKKKa" on his car and "#FeelthaBern" on yard signs supporting the Republican presidential nominee and running mate Mike Pence.

The latter wording references a slogan used by supporters of former Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.

A surveillance camera only showed a dark-colored van driving around the neighborhood.

Brunson has since put up more than 80 Trump-Pence signs, saying he won't be bullied.
