Last week, New York police arrested a man who allegedly sprayed anti-Semitic graffiti inside a residential building in the upstate New York ultra-Orthodox town of Kiryas Joel.

James Blazeski, 24, was charged with fourth-degree criminal mischief and remanded to Orange County jail, where he is being held on $2,500 cash bail, the Times Herald-Record reported.

According to JP Updates, Blazeski is accused of writing “Death to Jews” on a hallway door and leaving a note on the floor that said “Dirty Jews,” inside the majority-Jewish apartment building.

His vandalism was classified as a hate crime.
