Cops: Swastika scrawled on Sea Cliff home


A swastika was found scrawled on the garage of a Sea Cliff woman's home, Nassau police said.
The symbol was drawn in black permanent marker on a panel of the garage door and measures 5 inches by 5 inches, police said.
The woman, 63, who is Jewish and lives on Glen Avenue, was not identified by police.
A police spokesman said it is too soon to tell whether the incident, which was categorized as aggravated harassment and is being investigated by Sixth Squad detectives, is related to a rash of racist graffiti discovered nearby in recent weeks.
Two weeks ago, swastikas and the words "White Knight" were found in Sea Cliff on St. Boniface School and homes on Main Avenue, Littleworth Lane and Arlington Place, according to police.
In another incident, the vehicle of a man parked for Sabbath services at a Great Neck synagogue was scratched with swastikas, police said.
The most recent aggravated harassment incident has not yet been referred to the Nassau County Bias Crime Unit, police said.
