Baltimore Police are currently looking into an incident involving a white supremacist flyer that was found in the Fells Point neighborhood.
On Friday around noon, officers were dispatched to the 1600 block of Thames Street following a report of a suspicious package. According to police spokesperson Vernon Davis, a woman tending to her flowers stumbled upon a clear plastic bag containing rocks and a note.
The note reportedly included threatening language and made references to the "Sacred White Knights," a group identified by the Anti-Defamation League as a splinter faction of the Ku Klux Klan.
The Southern Poverty Law Center categorizes the Sacred White Knights as a hate group with origins linked to the KKK, based in Pelham, North Carolina. Officers seized the bag and its contents for further investigation.
As part of the inquiry, investigators reviewed surveillance footage from the area, which showed a silver Jeep passing through around 2:30 a.m. with individuals discarding items.
