Suspect Arrested In Synagogue Damage

(Eugene, OR) -- An Oregon man is charged with a federal hate crime for repeatedly defacing a Eugene synagogue. The incidents started last August when 34-year-old Adam Braun allegedly defaced Temple Beth Israel in Eugene. Some of the graffiti included antisemitic symbols. On January 14th, surveillance video recorded him with a hammer and as he was preparing to hit the glass doors, he saw the camera and stopped. Instead, he spray painted "White Power" on the building. Police searched his residence and found evidence of the attacks. Braun was arrested on Thursday and will be held pending further court proceedings.
