The FBI joined the Norwich Police Department and the New York State Police in an investigation of what city Police Chief Joseph Angelino called "a complete trashing" of the Norwich Jewish Center at 70-76 South Broad St.
“We are definitely treating this as a hate crime.” Angelino said. “My estimate of damages would be in the tens of thousands of dollars.”
Police said the entire interior of the large three-story brick building was vandalized.
”There was a certain anti-Semitic graffiti message found in the synagogue,” Angelino said. He would not elaborate on the message.
