Police looking for person of interest in Salt Lake City
By
Salt Lake City, Utah — On Friday Salt Lake City police released a photo of a man they believe may be connected to the vandalism that happened on the eve of the Jewish holiday of Shavuot.
According to the police reports a swastika was found carved into the front window of the building on May 16.
Police ask anyone who may be able to identify the man to contact the department or the FBI.
At the time, Rabbi Benny Zippel said that he did not believe the act had anything to do with the conflict between Israel and Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip.
“This is just yet another act of antisemitism and bigotry, and we as humans have failed again to love and accept one another in spite of what may be ideological differences,” said Zippel.
