A man was caught on an Ohio family's doorbell camera making antisemitic slurs about a week after they put an Israeli flag on their lawn to show support for the ongoing war.
An Ohio man was taken into custody on Monday after making antisemitic slurs towards two families with Israeli flags displayed on their lawns. Jacob Reidy, 39, was caught on a Ring doorbell camera by one of the families before being arrested on charges related to criminal trespass, according to the Bexley Police Department.
The incident occurred just a day after FBI Director Chris Wray warned of a spike in domestic threats linked to Israel's war against Hamas that began after the terrorist organization's brutal Oct. 7 attack. More than 1,400 Israelis have died since the war began and at least 150 adults and children were taken hostage into Gaza, according to the Israeli government. About 2,750 Palestinians have been killed and 9,700 wounded, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
was so shaken up that I had to call the police right away because I wanted them to get here as fast as they could and be able to find him,' she said. The police department said it is investigating the incident with state and federal authorities. 'The Department is in constant communication with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force and working closely on this and potential matters which may occur subsequent to last week’s attacks,' a statement obtained by Fox News read.
We encourage everyone that if they see something, say something and report it immediately to aid us in our efforts,' it added. Reidy — who has no criminal history — was spotted last Saturday shouting slurs from his car outside a synagogue, according a police spokesperson.
