Yeshiva World is reporting the NYPD and Boro Park Shomrim were on the scene investigating a hate crime in the heart of Boro Park’s Orthodox Jewish community. Swastikas were found inside a residential building on 44 Street between 14th and 15th Avenues on Wednesday Afternoon.

Making matters worse was that the victim who found the swastikas, Mrs. Lorjan, is a Holocaust survivor, who was 8-years-old at the time.

The NYPD 66 Precinct Commanding Officer James King was personally on the scene. Hate Crimes Task Force has been requested and is investigating the incident.
