Surveillance footage shot in New York caught a woman shredding a a poster outside an Upper East Side synagogue.
Police are investigating an incident that occurred last Wednesday in front of the Chabad Israel Center on New York’s Upper East Site in which a woman tore down a poster displaying the synagogue’s prayer service schedule.
“The woman — shown wearing a black-and-white jacket, black face mask, black pants and black backpack — remained at large Thursday, and the NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force is probing the incident,” reported the NY Post.
New York has been rocked by a wave of violent anti-Semitic hate crimes and its mayor, Bill de Blasio, has been accused of singling out the Jewish community for rebuke during the coronavius pandemic.
