Authorities have launched an investigation after a sign at a Minnesota Arby’s location was changed to a display an offensive message.

The message was discovered on Saturday after Brooklyn Center, Minnesota locals took picture of it and posted them to social media, reports Star Tribune.

“Now hiring n***ers and whores,” it read.

Police officers removed the message by 7 a.m., according to WCCO.

Arby’s released a statement on Saturday afternoon apologizing for the sign.

“Overnight, a reader board at an Arby’s restaurant on Brooklyn Blvd was compromised, and someone put up a message that was extremely offensive,” said a spokesperson. “The message has since been taken down. We’re cooperating with local law enforcement officials and will take appropriate action against those involved. We apologize to everyone exposed to that message.”
