Windows at Synagogue, Businesses Shot With BB Gun: MyFoxDC.com
POTOMAC, Md. - Montgomery County police say someone used a BB gun to shoot holes in several windows at a synagogue in Potomac and at two nearby businesses.
The vandalism was discovered early Monday at Beth Sholom Congregation on Seven Locks Road. The Jewish holiday of Passover begins Monday evening.
Officer Howard Hersh, a police spokesman, says investigators haven't determined whether the act was a hate crime. He says the two businesses have Jewish affiliations. They are a jewelry store and a women's clothing store.
Hersh says surveillance video shows the suspected shooter driving up to the stores in a vehicle around 1:20 a.m. Monday. He says synagogue also has a video surveillance system but it's not yet known whether it captured any images that will aid investigators.
