Police in California are investigating after antisemitic flyers left on cars and homes in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills on Sunday.
A home surveillance video shared by Sam Yebri, a candidate for L.A. City Council, shows a dark SUV throwing an object as it drives by a property in Westwood early Sunday. The flyers were placed in bags weighted with sand, per reports.
Yebri also shared a photo of the flyer, which blames Jews for the COVID pandemic and response, various social issues, as well as causing “every war in history.”
On Saturday, a group raised antisemitic banners over the 405 freeway in Los Angeles, supporting recent antisemitic comments by Kanye West.
“Disgusting hate speech,” Beverly Hills Mayor Lili Bosse tweeted Sunday. “As a daughter of an Auschwitz survivor, I will always bear witness and speak out.”
Per reports, the Beverly Hills Police Department is investigating the flyers, and the Los Angeles Police Department is investigating a similar flyer distribution in its jurisdiction.
“WhiteSupremacy is a societal cancer that must be excised,” L.A. District Attorney George Gascón tweeted Sunday. “I stand with the Jewish community in condemning this disgusting behavior.”
