SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (WXYZ) — Police in Southfield are investigating after a pregnancy resource center was vandalized last week, adding that they believe the incident could be connected to a national abortion rights extremist group.

The incident happened Sept. 16 at Mother and Unborn Baby Care Center on Southfield Road near W. 10 Mile Road.

Investigators say multiple windows were broken out and the property was spray painted in pink with the words, “If abortion isn’t safe neither are you, Jane.”
