SoCal Muslims Targeted in Recent Hate Crimes

Costa Mesa - Police are investigating a series of apparent hate crimes targeting Muslims in Southern California.
Mosques and displays have been vandalized in Costa Mesa, Mission Viejo, and Azusa in recent weeks... in five separate incidents.
On New Year's Day, someone left a burned and tattered Quran... the Islamic faith's holy text... at the back entrance of the Islamic Education Center while hundreds of people worshipped inside.
