Police are investigating a series of graffiti incidents as anti-Semitic hate crimes.
City workers on Tuesday found the words “Stop Jews,” and a Jewish Star of David with an equal sign next to a swastika spray-painted outside the human resources office at City Hall, police Sgt. Brad Goodwin said.
Police also found “Stop Jews” scrawled on the rear door of a building where property seized by police is kept.
Last week, Goodwin said, police found “Stop Jews” spray-painted on a bakery owned by a council member.
