St. Louis Park, MN - Synagogue Marked By Swastika

St. Louis Park, MN - Jewish leaders are concerned that a possible hate crime could mean danger for students at a St. Louis Park school.

Worshipers found a swastika outside Kenesseth Israel Synagogue as they arrived for evening prayers. And students start classes at Torah Academy across the street. And that has leaders concerned.
Teachers at Torah continue to get ready for their first day of school. But this first day will be different than planned. "We have things planned for the first day of school not because we're expecting anything, (but) because that is our responsibility," said Rabbi S. Binyomin Ginsberg, the dean of Torah Academy. "We have to make sure that students who come here are safe and secure."

The precautions include undercover security, extra police patrols and locked doors. They're also getting the word out to staff, students and parents.
