Antisemitic Flyers Featuring Adolf Hitler Found Outside Boca Raton Homes

BOCA RATON (CBSMiami) – A disturbing case of antisemitism is under investigation in Boca Raton after someone left  messages of hate outside of homes in a residential neighborhood on Wednesday.

U.S. Rep. Ted Deutch tweeted a photo of one of the antisemitic flyers, which had Nazi leader Adolf Hitler's picture and the words, "Died fighting the human race's eternal enemy, The Jew."

Rep. Deutch called the messages "vile antisemitism that must be universally condemned. And the cowards spreading this hate must be held accountable."

The flyers, placed in plastic bags filled with corn, were found on April 20, Hitler's birthday.

Boca Raton Mayor Scott Singer also condemned the messages of hate.

"Angry that this AM a cowardly hatemonger left anti-Semitic and pro-Hitler flyers in driveways at homes on four streets in our city. We fully condemn this vile hate. Boca PD investigating. Unusual here; unacceptable anywhere. We stand strong and united against all bigotry and anti-Semitism," Singer said in a tweet.
