OTTAWA — Police in Ottawa are looking for a man believed to have thrown eggs at the National Holocaust Monument.

They’re investigating the apparent vandalism as a hate crime.

Chief Peter Sloly says such incidents are deeply disturbing to many communities, regardless of whom they target.

Police say they’re looking for a white man in his early 20s, based on images from a nearby surveillance camera.

The two-year-old monument is a large installation a short distance west of Parliament Hill, with several distinct areas a person can walk through.
