A building newly renovated to house a synagogue in a central Florida town was spray-painted with anti-Semitic graffiti.
The new Traditional Congregation of Mount Dora was discovered vandalized with the graffiti and hate messages on the morning of July 9.
Police are classifying the incident as a hate crime.
Street signs, roads and vehicles in the area reportedly also were spray-painted with similar messages.
Volunteers arrived within hours to clean off the synagogue graffiti, according to reports. The synagogue is scheduled to open in two weeks.
