Anti-Semitic Graffiti Found On Forest Hills Dental Office: NYPD
"An attack on our Jewish community is an attack on every New Yorker," the mayor said in response to some anti-Semitic attacks this weekend.

FOREST HILLS, QUEENS — Anti-Semitic graffiti was found in the window of a Forest Hills dental office on Saturday, police said.
An expletive was scrawled next to the word "Jews" on the front window of Harrow Street dental office, according to a picture shared by local City Council Member Lynn Schulman, who called the anti-Semitic vandalism "disgusting."
Rabbi Ashie Schreier, who works in the neighborhood, told CBSNY that he reported the graffiti to police after seeing it while out for a walk with his young son.

"My son, who is 6, who recently learned how to read, started asking me some new questions. I was just explaining, unfortunately, there’s a lot of hate out there," Schreier told the outlet. "Our job is to fight that hate with the love."
The person who scrawled the graffiti on the window hasn't been arrested as of Monday, police said, but the NYPD Hate Crime Task Force is investigating the incident — one of a couple of anti-Semitic attacks that happened over the weekend, CBSNY reported.
