"@shomrimlondon More synagogues and a children's nursery in Golders Green, north London, have been targeted in alleged antisemitic attacks, police have said. Community security volunteers, Shomrim and The Jewish News both said these locations had been targeted with faeces. It's thought the latest incident brings the number of similar attacks to seven, all within the last fortnight. The Metropolitan Police force has said "the same suspect is likely to be responsible for all seven offences" and its officers are trying to identify the culprit."
"Det Supt Katie Harber said: "These are revolting and appalling acts and we are urging the public to help us identify the perpetrator. "We are very aware of how distressing these offences have been for those who have been targeted. We will not tolerate this kind of behaviour.""
Several synagogues and a children's nursery in Golders Green, north London, have been targeted in alleged antisemitic attacks involving faeces. Community security volunteers Shomrim and The Jewish News reported the incidents, which are believed to total seven similar offences over the last fortnight. The Metropolitan Police say the same suspect is likely responsible and are attempting to identify the culprit. Police noted "religiously-motivated criminal damage" at five synagogues, including a nursery door, a passageway used by worshippers and a school. Shomrim described the community as anxious and has handed CCTV to police while working with officers to reassure residents.
