    Anti-Semitism In America: Philadelphia Jewish Cemetery Vandalized, 2nd Incident In A Week By Marcy Kreiter @marcykreiter On
    Police in Philadelphia investigated vandalism Sunday at an old Jewish cemetery amid fears of rising anti-Semitism around the country.
    The incident was the second in less than a week. Similar vandalism struck a St. Louis Jewish cemetery.
    Philadelphia police were called to Mount Carmel Cemetery, founded in 1881, where as many as 100 gravesites were damaged, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported.
    “It’s just very heartbreaking,” Aaron Mallin of North Jersey told WPVI, Philadelphia. He made the discovery in a visit to his father’s grave. “It’s just very disheartening that such a thing would take place.
    “I’m hoping it was maybe just some drunk kids. But the fact that there’s so many, it leads one to think it could have been targeted.”
