Worley Cafe Hit w/Racist Graffiti

Peter Ohm, an Asian-American who has owned the Homestead Drive Inn in Worley for the last 5 years, is considering moving to southern California after his business was hit with racist graffiti earlier this month. According to Othello Richards of KREM2, Ohm's "latest experience has left a bad taste in his mouth. That’s because someone wrote words like 'dirty Jap', 'dog eater', 'fish face' and 'sell out' on his restaurant last week.  He says he was embarrassed by it and covered it up. You can read more about the story and watch Richards' KREM2 video report here.
