County Executive Bruce Blakeman and Commissioner of Police Patrick Ryder send their thoughts, prayers, and condolences to the victims and their families after the horrific shooting outside a synagogue in Jerusalem, which has left numerous individuals dead and injured. This is being considered a terrorist attack on International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
The County Executive has been briefed on the incident, and while there is no nexus or specific threats to Nassau County, we continue to work with our federal, state, and local partners as we continue to gather intelligence.
The Police Department continues to intensify its patrols around Synagogues, mass gatherings and all areas of concern.
Residents are reminded to call 911 immediately if they see or hear anything suspicious.  

IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING
