QUEENS’ SYNAGOGUES, HOMES TAGGED WITH SWASTIKAS:
A group of teens are believed to be responsible for a bunch of swastikas and pro-Nazi graffiti that turned up in Queens overnight. Spots targeted included two synagogues.
According to police sources, the string of incidents that occurred in Forest Hills and Rego Park during the early hours of Monday is being investigated as a hate crime. The investigation remains ongoing, with the 112th Precinct and the NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force involved.
Much of the extensive hate speech was scrawled outside of the Rego Park Jewish Center located at 97-30 Queens Blvd., at about 1:16 a.m. on May 4; the dastardly acts were caught on the building’s surveillance camera.
In the footage, the group of four teenagers wearing hoodies could be seen sidling up to the building before spraying the hateful Nazi symbol and the name “Hitler” beside it.

Sen. Gillibrand also posted a statement:
I am horrified by this morning's antisemitic graffiti in Queens. Targeting synagogues and Jewish homes is not just simply vandalism, but a hate crime meant to threaten and instill fear.
Jewish New Yorkers deserve to worship and live without fear of intimidation. This city cannot…
