Tensions remain high in Jewish communities across the United States as police in Missouri are investigating vandalism at a historic Jewish cemetery.
Vandals toppled and damaged about 100 headstones at the St. Louis area’s Chesed Shel Emeth Society cemetery in the past week, police said Monday. University City police didn’t release further details about when the vandalism happened, but they said officers first responded to a report about the damage at about 8:30 a.m. Monday.
The report of the vandalism came on the same day that the White House denounced a spate of recent bomb threats against Jewish Community Centers across the country, including 11 threats that were reported Monday.
