NYPD: Jordan Burnette Arrested In Connection With Synagogue Vandalism and Burglary
2021-05-03
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Police have made an arrest in what they’re calling a rash of hate crimes in the Bronx.

The NYPD identified the suspect as 29-year-old Jordan Burnette.

Police say they arrested him Saturday morning as he was riding a bike stolen from a synagogue.

"He is being charged with burglary as a hate crime and also faces numerous charges relating to the many acts of vandalism as hate crimes that have taken place in this community," said NYPD Deputy Inspector Jessica Corey, of the Hate Crimes Task Force.

"This has been going on for a few days. This was a department-wide effort," said John Miller, NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence and Counterterrorism. "Hopefully life will resume back to normal and people will be able to worship without fear."

#7  I was looking at the online WashPost version. No pic of Burnette but some of the commenters say he is black (and, since they are WaPo niks, blame it on Trump).

#5  Hopefully Judge Collins will provide '3 hots and a cot' and supervision to Burnette in the comfort of her own home.
