A swastika was cleaned off a garage door in Forest Hills.Mary-Lyn Buckley<\/p>\nNEW YORK (1010 WINS) — The NYPD released images of four suspects Wednesday in connection with an anti-Jewish graffiti spree in Queens earlier this week.<\/p>\n
The NYPD Hate Crime Task Force is investigating five incidents in the area of Forest Hills and Rego Park from Sunday evening to Monday morning.<\/p>\n
According to police, swastikas or other antisemitic messages were painted or drawn on a synagogue, an apartment building, two homes and a vehicle.<\/p>\n
Among the locations was Congregation Machane Chodosh, a synagogue on 108th Street in Forest Hills.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Jewish people are no stranger to this, that\u2019s because for over 3,000 years their ancestors have not taken the easy way,” Rabbi Yossi Mendelson told 1010 WINS. “It\u2019s much easier to move on and not live in your identity.\u201d<\/p>\n
Homes at 110th Street and 68th Avenue, and at 67th Drive and 108th Street, in Forest Hills were also hit \u2014 with swastikas spray-painted on a garage door and a window.<\/p>\n
An apartment building on Saunders Street in Rego Park also had swastikas and antisemitic statements spray-painted on it, according to cops.<\/p>\n
A swastika was painted on a vehicle at 67th Drive and 110th Street in Forest Hills, as well, police said.<\/p>\n
Berta, a resident whose home was hit in the spree, said she was “very upset.” A swastika was spray-painted on her garage and eggs were thrown at her balcony door.<\/p>\n
