Hate Crime

Two suspects were arrested over the weekend in connection with the alleged threat to the local Jewish community

The comments, traced by the FBI to Wyakee Ansaran Vinegar, include a statement Oct. 4 that “we going to have to start shooting and executing cops.”

The suspect had delusions that Asian people were "after him," his girlfriend told police

The suspect, a Chinese-born U.S. citizen, tried to disable locks with superglue and used chains to secure the doors

Authorities were still working to confirm the authenticity of a 180-page manifesto that was posted online that detailed the plot

Erie County Sheriff: "This was pure evil. It was straight up racially motivated hate crime from somebody outside of our community."

The platform said the video violated its “violent or graphic content policy”

The arrests concluded a yearlong investigation into robberies that targeted Asian women

Police found unlawful weapons at the man's home and a manifesto stating he would “slaughter” thousands of women “out of hatred, jealousy and revenge”

"We need all New Yorkers to help to stop these hateful acts," said Police Commissioner Dermot Shea

The woman is accused of stomping on the poster in front of a deputy who had pulled her over for speeding

Police officials said they would work to determine if the incident was a possible hate crime

Members of the NYPD’s strategic response group will be headed to those communities, said Chief of Department Rodney Harrison

The bill establishes a point person at the DOJ who would review hate crime incidents reported to law enforcement agencies

The measure would expedite the review of hate crimes at the DOJ and provide support for local law enforcement
