SFGate confirmed that the police found that “a string tied around the trunk and neck, stuffed in the shape of a human body lying on the ground next to a tree with an American flag next to it”.
On Wednesday, Mayor Libby Schaaf said the noose opinions will be investigated by the FBI as hate crime.

“We immediately investigated the FBI to investigate what this hate crime is – hate crime – immediately,” added Schaaf.
