Jewish Man Arrested, Posted Swastikas on Doors; Family Business Dispute Drove Him to Harass Jews

A Jewish man was under arrest on hate crime charges today (January 16, 2012), accused of making anti-Semitic telephone calls to his mother and other elderly women, and putting swastikas on apartment doors, the Telegraph website reports.

A family business dispute drove David Haddad, 56, of Manhattan -- who is Jewish -- to make threatening phone calls to his mother, 80, and to two other women, ages 87 and 78, police said.

According to a police spokesman, "He said basically that all Jews should die and go to hell."

Haddad -- who was charged with aggravated harassment as a hate crime -- also was accused of taping notes with anti-Semitic symbols including swastikas on five apartment doors and in the hallway of a building in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan.
