2 Jewish Men Shot Outside Los Angeles Synagogue in Possible Hate Crime


A gunman opened fire outside a Los Angeles synagogue Thursday and shot two Jewish men in the legs as they went into morning services.

Police detained a teenager for questioning, but said they also were continuing to look for possible suspects because the person in custody only "loosely" matches the description of the shooter and his clothing. He was picked up in the immediate vicinity, police said.

Authorities have put extra patrols at Jewish schools and synagogues in Los Angeles.

Deputy Chief Michael Moore says two members of the Adat Yeshurun Valley Sephardic synagogue were shot in the legs in the parking garage as they were heading to services shortly before 6:30 a.m. Thursday.

Moore says the gunman, a man in a hoodie, said nothing before opening fire.

(A black man in a hoodie. Odd how they left that part out. Just an editorial oversight, I'm sure.)

He says the men are in good condition at a hospital. There's no immediate word on a motive.

Investigators say a gunman entered the San Fernando Valley building at about 6:20 a.m. and shot two Jewish people. The wounded people had just pulled into the synagogue parking structure for morning services.

Police initially said they are investigating the shooting as a hate crime.

Officer Rosario Herrera said the victims were taken to a hospital and were in stable condition.

It was not clear how many people were in the building at the time.

The attack occurred 10 miles away from a 1999 shooting at a Jewish community center where white supremacist Buford Furrow wounded three children, a teenager and an adult. He later killed a letter carrier.

Well Hairy-tic

As anyone with an IQ over 50 (that leaves you out) :drunk3: can see from the story there is nothing yet to believe that this is no more than a random act of violence.

Oh I’m sure you’re right RealDumb, :drunk3: just as I’m sure we won’t come to find out that the black man in question was likely a jailhouse convert to the wonderfully serene and peace loving ‘religion’ of Islam. Never happen, will it genius? :wacko2:
