Twenty-five gravestones at Hebrew Cemetery in Fall River, Massachusetts, were vandalized with anti-Semitic messages and swastikas over the weekend.
More than two dozen gravestones at a Jewish cemetery in Massachusetts were defaced with swastikas and anti-Semitic messages over the weekend, police said.
Robert Trestan, the Regional Director of the Anti-Defamation League in New England, told Newsweek that this incident was disturbing because it appeared that the cemetery was targeted. The league is offering a $1,500 reward, in addition to the Fall River Police Department's award, for any information that leads to the apprehension of a suspect.
