Suspect Caught In Burning Of Jewish Religious Items In Brooklyn
Police say the man suspected of burning
several Jewish symbols in Brooklyn has been taken into custody.
Authorities had been looking for Rubin
Ublies.
The 35-year-old has dozens of past arrests
for crimes including robbery, drug possession, weapons possession and grand
larceny.
Police say Ublies is the man seen in
surveillance pictures taken inside a Clymer Street building where a mezuzah was
found burned Tuesday.
A mezuzah is a small portion of the Torah
in a protective case, hung on the door posts of Jewish homes.
Eleven others were burned in a building a
block away on Taylor Street Monday, which was Holocaust Remembrance Day.
