Report: Anti-Semitic Incidents On The Rise
BOSTON (AP) _ The Anti-Defamation League says anti-Semitic incidents have increased in New England.
The New York civil rights group that's focused on anti-Jewish attacks said in a report Thursday there have been 132 incidents recorded in the region from Jan. 1 through Sept. 30.
The organization says that's a 32 percent increase over the same period last year and it exceeds last year's total.
The incidents include harassment, vandalism and threats made against Jewish institutions. The Anti-Defamation League says a ``disturbingly high number'' happened in schools.
Most of the reported incidents, 117 of the 132, happened in Massachusetts.
The organization said Massachusetts registered the third highest number of anti-Semitic incidents in a nationwide tally, after New York and California. It says states with large Jewish populations tend to have the most incidents.
