Grand Rapids Police are investigating after West Michiganders reported receiving racist text messages after the election.
Grand Rapids resident Frances Carmona tells WOOD TV her 15-year-old niece received one of the spam-like messages.

Police ask that anyone who gets a harassing or threatening message to file a police report and include a screenshot of the number and the message.
