Police are investigating two swastikas carved into the passenger side windows of two cars in a heavily Hasidic neighborhood of Brooklyn, ABC7 reported.

A Lexus and a Ford were found with damage late Wednesday night on a quiet street in Borough Park.

The swastikas are being investigated as a possible bias crime.
