Gunmen in a furious firefight that left six people dead in Jersey City clearly targeted a Jewish market, says mayor amid growing suspicions it was an anti-Semitic attack
Responders work to clean up the scene of Tuesday's shooting that left multiple people dead at a kosher market, December 11, 2019, in Jersey City, NJ.
Neither the state attorney general, who is running the investigation, nor any other law enforcement authority has confirmed the shooters targeted Jews. The shooting began near a cemetery, where Detective Joseph Seals, a 40-year-old member of a unit devoted to taking illegal guns off the street, was killed while trying to stop “bad guys,” Police Chief Michael Kelly said without elaborating.
Two of the victims at the store were identified by members of the Orthodox Jewish community as Mindel Ferencz, who with her husband owned the grocery, and 24-year-old Moshe Deutsch, a rabbinical student from Brooklyn who was shopping there. The Ferencz family had moved to Jersey City from Brooklyn.Fulop said a review of security camera footage has led to the conclusion that the gunmen targeted the market.
But Fulop cautioned, "I didn't use the word 'anti-Semitic.' Anything else is open for investigation."Jewish leaders and the Anti-Defamation League, which tracks anti-Semitic attacks, expressed concern about the deaths.
