Police search for vandals who sprayed antisemitic graffiti on a home in Oxford
Police are searching for vandals who sprayed antisemitic graffiti on a home in Oxford.
The pair of suspects daubed a swastika on the front door of a house on Stubbs Avenue at 22:07 on 31st January, and Thames Valley Police have now released images and confirmed that they are pursuing the matter.
The vandals returned at 22:23 on the same evening and reportedly used a pole to break a CCTV camera on the property.
In a statement, the police said: “Criminal damage of this kind will never be tolerated and we are asking anyone who recognises these men to come forward and speak to us. Anyone with information should call police on 101 with reference 43210042799.”
Campaign Against Antisemitism’s analysis of Home Office statistics shows that an average of over three hate crimes are directed at Jews every single day in England and Wales, with Jews almost four times more likely to be targets of hate crimes than any other faith group.
