Swastika graffiti discovered in New Jersey park
Swastika graffiti has been discovered in a park in Clifton, New Jersey.
City Manager Nick Villano said that the spray-painted symbols were discovered on the door of a portable toilet and on picnic tables.
The park is located near Mesivta of Clifton, a Jewish high school.
The vandals are yet to be found.
Officials have stated that this was one of many antisemitic incidents reported in recent weeks.
Former City Council candidate and local resident Stephen Goldberg said: “We need to get serious about addressing antisemitism”, adding that Clifton should adopt the International Definition of Antisemitism.
According to the FBI, over 60 percent of hate crimes against a religious minority are motivated by antisemitism.
