Hate Crimes Unit Probes Series Of Brooklyn Swastikas - crime - NYC - hate crime - New York


The New York City Police Department has launched an investigation after swastikas were found inside a Brooklyn building.



The swastikas were found scratched into the metal of an elevator Friday at 70 Ross Street in Williamsburg.

They have since been removed.

An elevator in the same building was also targeted last Wednesday.

The NYPD says its hate crimes unit is looking into both cases.
