Michigan Regent’s Home Vandalized in Antisemitic Attack
Jordan Acker's house and car were targeted with pro-Palestinian graffiti and vandalism, marking the third such incident this year.
- Jordan Acker, a Jewish University of Michigan regent, awoke to shattered windows and antisemitic graffiti on his car, including phrases like 'Divest' and 'Free Palestine' and a Hamas-associated symbol.
- The attack, which occurred early Monday morning, involved mason jars filled with urine being thrown through the home's windows while Acker's family was inside.
- This is the third time Acker has been targeted this year, following similar incidents at his law office and home by individuals opposing the university's refusal to divest from Israel.
- The University of Michigan condemned the attack as a 'clear act of antisemitic intimidation' and called for solidarity against bigotry and violence.
- Law enforcement is investigating the incident, with video evidence showing two individuals near the property at the time of the vandalism.
