USA - Arrest made in Weiss swastika pasting

A 32-year-old man was arrested this morning in connection with the pasting of swastikas on the district office door of Los Angeles City Councilman Jack Weiss , according to a spokesperson for the LAPD.

Adonis A. Irwin was arrested about 8:30 a.m. in the 4600 block of Natick Avenue in Sherman Oaks, police said. He was taken into custody without incident and booked on a charge of felony vandalism.

A lone vandal was witnessed early Thursday gluing sheets of paper on the front door to Weiss' office in Sherman Oaks. Three pieces displayed the Nazi flag. Two others contained printed messages, one of which stated "Our policy: we have no time to listen to Jewish American children!!! If you don't believe us, just try talking to us.… Hail Weiss!"
