(Jewish Group) New York man charged with hate crime for antisemitic graffiti on synagogue

New York police arrested a man on Wednesday for vandalizing a synagogue with antisemitic graffiti.

Lenny De La Rosa was charged with criminal mischief as a hate crime and making graffiti, court filings showed.

De La Rosa was arraigned on Thursday and pleaded not guilty, and is set to appear in court again on October 3.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams hailed the arrest, saying, “The message is clear: antisemitism has no place in New York City.”
