FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. – Residents in Oakland County are concerned after several people found bags filled with antisemitic writings.
Police said the bags were found outside more than 100 homes in Farmington Hills. Three law enforcement agencies are working to track down the people responsible for spreading hate driveway-to-driveway.
The bags contained an antisemitic flier and were weighed down with various materials to make it easier to throw onto the homes’ driveways and lawns.
West Bloomfield police are also investigating who put out another 100 of them in their neighborhoods. There are reports of the same thing happening in White Lake.
Farmington Hills Police Chief Jeff King said it could be connected to Monday marking one year since Hammas’ attack in Israel.
“We want our community to know, specifically our Jewish Community, that we are aware of this, we are cognizant of the timing and we will not tolerate this kind of a hate-based activity in our community,” King said.
Police are asking residents to check their doorbell cameras to see if they captured anything. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Farmington Hills Police Department at 248-871-2610.
