CBS 8 went to the neighborhood and obtained a photo of the person who might be responsible for all of the damage.

"Really, really random. We've never had issues with vandalism," said Felicia Carlucci. 

She and her neighbors are still in shock by what they found over the weekend.

"I've lived most my life on this street and nothing like this has ever happened," said a man who wished to remain anonymous.

The vandalism happened around 2nd Avenue and F StreetThe Chula Vista Police Department gave CBS 8 this photo of who they believe damaged a car windshield. It's unclear if this person is responsible for the graffiti.

"All across our neighbor's garage door was the word 'Unthinkable' in bright turquoise paint. We don't know what it means, don't know why," another anonymous resident said.

More graffiti was found around the neighborhood.

"The next day I was walking, saw a lot more of the same paint in other places and concern from neighbors, especially with the swastika. There is a synagogue close by," she said.

Spray paint was seen on several cars and an SUV's windshield was shattered.

"Her car was definitely vandalized. The windshield looks like it was kicked in. Footprints very clearly visible on the car," a resident said.

Investigators believe there may be more neighbors in the area whose property was vandalized.
