Richard Green of Bayard Street was arrested this afternoon in New Brunswick. No determination has been made yet if the incident will be considered a bias crime and an ongoing investigation will determine if Green was responsible for other acts of criminal mischief that have occurred in the past few days.
According to Highland Park mayor Stephen Nolan, Green has been sent for a psychiatric evaluation.
“I am very pleased that police worked so quickly and with the community to apprehend this individual just hours after the incidents occurred,” Mayor Nolan told VIN News. “It is a testament to Highland Park which is all about tolerance and working together peacefully.”
Richard Green is possibly a Jewish name. There have been quite a few cases where such attacks were perpetrated by Jews. There was even a case in Australia where a rabbi painted swastikas on a car.
and Hitler was Jewish and ofcourse 9-11 was done by the Jews…
wow, that was quick
The truth is the name Green can go either way.Its not a Jewish name. Many African Americans have the name Green for example.
Neither I nor Mr Google recall a rabbi painting a swastika on a car in Australia. Troll.
why are jewish people so afraid to admit that anti semitism exists and is alive and well.?!
just yesterday as i was walking with my husband at the water near toys r us in Brooklyn, we were attacked from behind by three guys on bikes, spit at, and striked my husbands head throwing off his yarmulka.
Police had been investigating windows smashed at businesses along Raritan Avenue in Highland Park Wednesday as a bias crime, and will determine whether to upgrade the charges against Green after their investigation is complete.
There was no graffiti or offensive slogans or symbols, but police said all the stores targeted were Jewish businesses, including three kosher restaurants, two Judaica shops and a Jewish-owned hardware store.
