The New Hampshire Democratic Party's office in Belknap County was hit with antisemitic vandalism and a swastika sometime this Thursday, NBC News reported.
According to reports, a flyer claiming the Jews were responsible for 9/11 was placed on an outside window along with a swastika. Also found was an image of a Star of David with a knife through it.
"Hate crimes and civil rights violations have no place in New Hampshire," said a spokesperson for Attorney General John Formella. "The attorney general’s office is committed to working with our local, state, and federal partners to identify these acts and their perpetrators and to pursuing action to the fullest extent possible."

In a post to X, Rep. Chris Pappas, (D-NH) wrote, "I’m thinking of all my friends in Laconia tonight. This antisemitic vandalism is part of a surge in hateful attacks on the Jewish community across the country. There is simply no place for bigotry and hate in our society, and we must speak with one voice to condemn it."
As NBC News points out, the incident comes as law enforcement agencies report a significant spike in antisemitic hate crimes around the country.
