Walter L. Fleming The Missouri Department of Transportation removed the sign marking "Rosa Parks Highway" because it had been spray-painted with the letters "KKK," which is an abbreviation for the Ku Klux Klan white supremacist group.
St. Louis County Police dispatched their crime scene unit to investigate early Friday morning.
