There’s new information in an apparent hate crime at a Brooklyn synagogue. Police have released video, in hopes of catching the man accused of vandalizing the house of worship.
A rally to denounce the vandalism got underway late Tuesday morning, CBS2’s Aundrea Cline-Thomas reported.
Clergy from different faiths stood in solidarity after a Bushwick synagogue was targeted by vandals over the weekend. The NYPD Hate Crimes Division continues to investigate the incident.
The group of clergy and law enforcement gathered in front of the boarded up window and shattered glass, which appear to be an indication of an increasing trend.
Video surveillance captured one of possibly two people police are looking for. They’re believed to be responsible for shattering the front window of the Chabad of Bushwick early Saturday morning.
“We just heard a really loud noise. It even sounded a little like an explosion,” Rabbi Menachem Heller said.
About 15 people, including children, were inside the synagogue observing Shabbat. No one was injured.
Anyone with information regarding this incident has been asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website at http://www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or by texting their tips to 274637 (CRIMES) and entering TIP577.

You need to reproduce his picture with a finanicial cash reward and post it all over the area near the shul. Every lamppost and apartment door should get a flyer under the door. He is obviously in walking distance. Why can’t the cops look at recent arrests or released prisoners records. Someone will recognize him especially for a quick few bucks.

It’s important for people in the community to know the following: A high-level ex-CIA guy, who’s white, and is one of the major forces behind anti-Semitic rhetoric on YouTube with millions of views has been spewing lies and hatred against Chabad for close to a year now. In his latest Feb. 8 interview on X22 Report on YouTube he lies about Chabad, causing incitement against Chabad from the 16 minute mark to 16:30. In just a few days the video is approaching half million views, and his videos are mirrored on YouTube and other platforms; so his Haman-like poisonous lies… Read more »
