Fox News
Anti-Semitic graffiti tagged outside the Florida Holocaust Museum in St. Petersburg this week has angered and upset Holocaust survivors and others in the community.
Police were investigating the crime after officers on patrol early Thursday noticed a swastika and the phrase "Jews are guilty" graffitied on the wall of the museum but had yet to arrest any suspects. City workers painted over the hateful writing later that day, FOX 13 reported. "As the grandson of Holocaust survivors, this attack on the Museum is not just repugnant. It is personal," Michael Igel, the museum's board chair, told the station. "The lessons of the Holocaust have not yet been learned, but the Museum and the broader community who supports our vital work will never be intimidated by cowardly vandals, nor will we be deterred from our mission."More Related News
