Gunshot Fired at Ind. Synagogue Class Window; Rabbi:"Acts of Hate Are Happening Everywhere"

A gunshot was fired through a Hebrew school classroom window at an Indiana synagogue this week, the Jerusalem Post website reports today (March 2, 2017).


The bullet hole was discovered late on February 27 at Adath B'Nai Israel Temple in Evansville, Indiana.


The rabbi of the synagogue, Gary Mazo, said, "We're in this climate where [anti-Semitic] acts of hate are happening everywhere."


The Evansville Police Department and the FBI are investigating the incident. Indiana is one of five states that does not have a hate crimes law.
