Boston police to investigate possible ‘disturbance’ at New England Holocaust Memorial

February 13, 2023

Boston-area Jewish groups are sounding the alarm about a possible “disturbance” at the New England Holocaust Memorial, as police said they will open up an investigation into the incident.

A circulating video on Twitter from over the weekend shows a group of young men apparently kicking the glass wall of the memorial in downtown Boston.

The group of young men noticed the person filming and approached him, making anti-Semitic threats of violence, according to the organization StopAntisemitism.

“Anytime something happens at that site, which is so sacred to so many, it’s really a heightened concern,” Peggy Shukur, Anti-Defamation League New England’s interim regional director, told the Herald on Monday.
