Threats spray painted on Senator Coleman's garage:

startribune.com

ST. PAUL - Vandals defaced the garage at Sen. Norm Coleman's home, his campaign and police said Wednesday.

Coleman and his wife, Laurie, live in the Crocus Hill neighborhood of St. Paul. Graffiti left on the outside of their garage reads: "U R A criminal resign or else"; "Scum," which is written three times; and "Psalm 2."

Coleman is a former mayor of St. Paul, and has lived in the home on a residential street near the Victoria's Crossing shopping area for almost 20 years.

Police spokesman Peter Panos said the graffiti was reported Wednesday morning. He said he expected increased patrols around the Coleman home.

Laurie Coleman, the senator's wife, told the St. Paul Pioneer Press that the family's garage has been marked at least once before, but the latest incident was worse.

"This is just threatening," she said.

Norm Coleman, a Republican, is in a tight race for his second term against Democrat Al Franken and Independent Dean Barkley.
