6:57Now PlayingAntisemitism seems to be a growing problem lately... Ana Kasparian and Ben Mankiewicz, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"As many as 200 headstones at a Jewish cemetery were toppled over the weekend here in a case that is making national headlines.
Anita Feigenbaum, executive director of the Chesed Shel Emeth Cemetery, said officials will be cataloging the damage Tuesday and notifying relatives whose families are affected. A monument company will decide which headstones need to be replaced and which need to be reset, she said.
Feigenbaum was emotional in describing the damage she saw.
"It's hard to even express how terrible it was," she said Tuesday morning. "It was horrible."
Police are investigating the vandalism, which happened sometime over the weekend. No arrests had been made, as of Tuesday. Asked whether the incident is being investigated as a hate crime, Detective Lt. Fredrick Lemons II said police were keeping all options open.
Lemons said detectives are reviewing a weekend's worth of video, so it will take more time to complete. He wouldn't say if they've found anything on tape so far that looks suspicious. He also said he couldn't yet narrow down the time it happened.
"There's nothing to indicate it was any type of hate crime," he said.
The police force has increased patrols. "We want our citizens -- Jewish and non-Jewish -- to feel comfortable," he said.”*
