MEDFORD — A southern Oregon couple targeted by racist posts on Craigslist are getting plenty of community support while police in the Medford area investigate.

The Mail Tribune reported that police in the town of Phoenix are investigating posts that include old images of blacks being lynched and target mixed-race couples such as Will and Nikola Moore.

The couple are the owners of Roscoe’s barbecue and say they have not been confronted with any kind of racism in the four years since they opened their restaurant — until now.

On Tuesday night, hundreds of people filed into the barbecue restaurant to show support for Moore and his wife.
