East Renfrewshire – Police have launched a hate crime investigation after a teenage boy was filmed performing a Nazi salute outside a synagogue in East Renfrewshire.
During the short clip, the young boy also has a Hitler-style moustache drawn above his upper lip.
The video – recorded outside Giffnock & Newlands Synagogue – was reported to officers after being posted online.
On Monday, a Police Scotland spokeswoman said: “Police Scotland is aware of a video circulating online on various social media channels which shows a teenage boy conducting actions of an antisemitic nature outside a synagogue.
