After an Arab American group complained, the mayor said the town was trying to avoid displaying overt religious symbols on public property.

“I guess I’m a purist,” says Raphael Gribetz, who left behind the trauma of his Jewish New York roots. “But I’ve suffered. And I continue to suffer.”

The president of the oldest synagogue in Bangor said he hopes the teens will go to a restorative justice program rather than face charges.
