The NYPD is investigating a possible bias crime in Brooklyn Heights after a Pineapple Street resident found an anti-Semitic note taped to her front door on Tuesday morning.
The note was written in thick black marker and partially said “kill” and “Jews,” but police did not release the full message to a Brooklyn Paper reporter on the scene.
The residents of the single-family house, which is between Willow Street and Columbia Heights, refused to comment. But two occupants appeared shaken as they discussed the finding with detectives.
The incident is sure to send shockwaves in Brooklyn Heights, where last year, 19 swastikas and dozens of flyers bearing anti-Semitic messages appeared on Remsen Street, including swastikas at Congregation B’nai Avraham and the Brooklyn Heights Synagogue nearby.
In January, police arrested Ivaylo Ivanov, 37, in connection with the crimes.
Then, in March, another swastika appeared on a Remsen Street brownstone.

“Kill & Jews” hmmm possible Bias crime?- thats a tough one
I thought it’s called ANTISEMITISM!!! But “Bias” sounds a lot more polite!!
NeveAliza, you have a very poor sense of humor. There is nothing funny about this.
Isn’t it funny that Jews still live in places where they’re not wanted? ****** I hope you are not refering to Yehuda and Shomron and Beis Hashalom.
There will be an upsurge of anti-semitic acts now, it is due to the ‘copy cat syndrome’. Jewish blood was shed in Mumbai, rocks are thrown at Jews in Israel, Jews are being evicted from a home that was bought in Chevron,,(and no body gives a HOOT)…. then the carte blanche of anti-semitism is out in the open.
Nevealiza- you mean like Gaza- hebron- east Jerusalem- Taba- Golan Heights-?
NeveAliza – there is no corner on this earth on which we are wanted until Mashiach comes and brings us to a safe haven.
POSSIBLE bias…give me a break…pure hate that’s what it is. Does the NYPD not see clearly?
