NYC Police Probe Car Fires, Swastikas on Benches; Hate Crime Occurred in Jewish Section of Brooklyn

The Reuters website reports today (November 13, 2011) that New York City police responded to 911 calls reporting cars ablaze early on November 11. When they arrived, police found three cars on fire.

Another vehicle -- a red van -- had "KKK" spray painted on it, representing the racist group Ku Klux Klan.

Police also found eight benches with Nazi swastikas spray painted on them.

"The NYPD's Hate Crimes Task Force is actively investigating the twisted person or people who attacked the cars, benches, and a sidewalk on a block of Ocean Parkway," New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said. Police have no suspects.
