Reward In Swastika Incident

MINEOLA, N.Y. - Authorities are offering a $6,000 reward to catch whoever spray-painted swastikas on a Long Island synagogue.

The swastikas were left last week on the front doors of the Congregation Beth Shalom Chabad in Mineola.

Rabbi Anchelle Perl calls it a "despicable" deed that left worshippers feeling hurt, sad and violated.

The police investigation includes reviews of video surveillance.

Anyone with information is asked to call 1-800-244-TIPS. Calls will be kept confidential.
