Buffalo, NY – The effects of a war a world away are being seen here at home.
On Monday, 2 On Your Side obtained a police report confirming an antisemitic incident taking place at Buffalo Public Schools’ Hutchinson Central Technical High School in November.
The police report said that a Muslim student drew swastikas and the Star of David on a desk in a Jewish teacher’s classroom.
The student told investigators that he was aware of the ongoing war in the Middle East but claimed to be unaware of the meaning of the symbols.
Buffalo Public Schools suspended the student following the incident and denounced the act.
