UK police say that officers investigating a series of antisemitic incidents in north London have arrested a 37-year-old man.
The man was arrested in the Hendon area of north London on suspicion of religiously motivated criminal damage in connection with seven offenses and remains in custody, the Metropolitan Police say.
“This is a significant development in our investigation following substantial CCTV enquiries by officers,” says detective Luke Williams.
The force said Thursday that seven Jewish premises, including four synagogues, had been targeted in separate incidents over recent weeks.
The synagogues and a private residence in Golders Green had feces smeared on them, while urine was thrown toward a school and over a car in two other instances.
