Police Nab 2 in Indiana Synagogue Vandalism; Conviction Could Result in a 10-Year Sentence

Police have arrested two suspects in connection with the painting of a swastika on a synagogue in Indiana, the Times of Israel website reports today (August 18, 2018).

Nolan Brewer, 20, and an unnamed co-conspirator, are suspected of painting a black swastika and the German Nazi Iron Cross last month at Shaarey Tefilla, a Conservative synagogue near Indianapolis with 200-member families.

Police said the two were caught on surveillance video purchasing red and black spray paint and bandanas from a Wal-Mart store the day before the vandalism.

A conviction of the charge of conspiracy to violate civil rights could carry a 10-year sentence.
