The Denver Police Department has cited a 56-year-old man for posting anti-migrant signs near the Colorado Capitol in late March.

The agency said Monday that Christopher Balli was cited on a municipal code violation on Thursday for illegally posting on public or private property, as the signs were attached to city street sign poles on March 22. However, Balli is not facing hate crime charges at this time.

The signs were bolted to the same posts as the city’s metal street signs and made to look like a normal street sign. However, the signs featured the words hookers, migrants and undocumented.
