Police search for suspect behind alleged antisemitic threats and vandalism in Ontario, Canada

Police are searching for a suspect believed to be responsible for yelling antisemitic threats and committing vandalism in Ontario, Canada.

This week, police officers in the city of Vaughan responded to a call from a residence on Conley Street where they spoke with an alleged victim of an antisemitic incident. The police were told that a male, who is believed to be Russian and between the ages of 28 and 30, yelled antisemitic threats towards the alleged victim whilst cycling down the street.

The following day, the alleged victim reported antisemitic sentiments scratched into his vehicle. Police believe that the individual responsible is the same person behind the antisemitic threats.

Anyone with information can contact the York Regional Police #4 District Criminal Investigations Bureau at 1-866-876-5423, ext. 7441 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS. They can also leave an anonymous tip online at www.1800222tips.com.
