2 western Pa. mobile home parks hit with KKK fliers
SARVER, Pa. (AP) — Residents of two western Pennsylvania mobile home parks say they’ve received fliers from a Ku Klux Klan group that were tossed in sandwich bags weighted down by rocks, including one that cracked a truck’s windshield.
The fliers have been reported by residents of parks in Buffalo and Jefferson townships in Butler County, about 25 miles northeast of Pittsburgh.
Officials believe the rocks were used to weight down the fliers and make them easier to distribute, not to cause damage, because it’s illegal to put handbills and similar papers in mail boxes.
The fliers invited people to visit a website or call a toll-free number to join a group called the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.
Nobody immediately returned a call to the number from The Associated Press today.
