Ottawa Police Investigate Egging Of Holocaust Monument As A Hate Crime

Darpan News Desk, 31 Jan, 2020 09:50 PM

    OTTAWA - Police in Ottawa are looking for a man believed to have thrown eggs at the National Holocaust Monument.

     

    They're investigating the apparent vandalism as a hate crime.

     

    Chief Peter Sloly says such incidents are deeply disturbing to many communities, regardless of whom they target.

     

    Police say they're looking for a white man in his early 20s, based on images from a nearby surveillance camera.

     

    The two-year-old monument is a large installation a short distance west of Parliament Hill, with several distinct areas a person can walk through.

     

    It commemorates the deaths of an estimated six million European Jews at the hands of Nazi Germany, before and during the Second World War.
