NEW YORK

The suspects in this case targeted a synagogue and two churches.

On December 29th, Our Lady Of Assumption church had its school principal's office ransacked and burglarized.

On January 7th, The Greek-American Institute on Bruckner Boulevard was burglarized.

On January 13th, Temple Beth-El of City Island was ransacked, and its silver torah crowns and kiddish cups were all stolen.

They have a very small congregation and suffered the most financial damage. If you would like to assist, please visit www.yourshulbythesea.org.

Police are trying to determine if the crimes are all related, since they are similar in nature and in close proximity to each other.
