(JTA) — Two foot-long swastikas were drawn outside the apartment door of an elderly Jewish woman in Brooklyn.
Miryam Marc, 77, said her late husband was a Holocaust survivor, and she escaped from Europe to Israel during the Holocaust.
The large swastikas were drawn in red marker on either side of Marc’s door on Saturday afternoon, WCBS-TV reported.
The apartment building installed security cameras after the incident.
“Now I am very, very, very depressed and I am scared even in the night. I cannot sleep,” Marc told WCBS.
The New York Police Department’s Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating the vandalism. There are no suspects.
