Two teen girls – one a self-proclaimed Nazi - were arrested and charged with spray-painting the Ohav Zedek Synagogue and another building with anti-Semitic words and symbols.

Nora Rynkeiwicz, 18, of Factoryville, and her 17-year-old juvenile friend, turned themselves in to police. Rynkeiwicz, a senior at Wyoming Valley West, told a judge she has been living with her grandmother in Plymouth for the past several years.

Rynkeiwicz is charged with institutional vandalism, a third-degree felony, for spray-painting racist remarks and symbols on the Ohav Zedek Synagogue. She faces charges of criminal conspiracy for the graffiti on the temple and the vacant Mertz building on Conyngham Avenue.

The charges against the juvenile accomplice will be filed in the juvenile court system.
