Car Set On Fire; Swastikas Painted on Garage Doors

Selden, NY – An apparent anti-Semitic hate crime has a father in fear on Long Island, and he isn�t even Jewish.

WCBS880’s Sophia Hall reports:

Alexander Robles says he is afraid for his family, especially his little 3-year-old daughter, because this is the second time his family in Selden has been hit with hate crimes.

�We were awoken to a loud thumping noise,� says Robles. �I heard the car alarm went off, and looked out the window, and the car was on fire.�

Robles says he woke up his wife, his mother, and grabbed his daughter and ran out of the house.

Robles says, �Then we see swastikas on the garage door and this is the second time this has happened within the past nine months.�

Robles, who is not Jewish, but Hispanic, says he does not know why his family is being targeted.

�G-d forbid. It could have been worse,� says Robles.

The car fire was started right underneath his daughters bedroom window.
