The residue of a hateful message etched onto a display board outside Congregation Kehilath Jeshuran was being scrubbed away on Sunday.No matter how big or small the incident might appear, the rabbi of the prominent synagogue on East 85th Street and Lexington Avenue says all incidents should be taken seriously.
Police are now looking for a man who was seen on surveillance video walking by the synagogue at around 7 p.m. on Saturday. The footage shows the man suddenly turn around and approach the building with a marker and then writing antisemitic graffiti, according to police. The message referenced Christianity, and a sword and dollar sign were drawn below it."Very disturbed and very upset.
"It's unfortunate that to go into a synagogue today in New York you have to run through gauntlet of security personnel," Wagner said."We have very strong security and we examine and roaming security all the time and this incident will certainly be taken into account."
