Here’s what went down 👇
Read this if you’re tracking rising hate crimes, domestic terrorism, or community safety during religious holidays.
📍 What Just Happened
A gunman unleashed a barrage of twenty bullets into the home of a Jewish family in Redlands, California, over the weekend in what authorities have now confirmed as a targeted hate crime.
Door camera footage captured the suspect shouting explicit antisemitic slurs like "F*** the Jews" as he performed the violent drive-by shooting at their Hanukkah-decorated family residence.
The Anti-Defamation League released a statement condemning the dangerous and despicable act, emphasizing that such clear threats to the Jewish community must not ever be tolerated or normalized.
🚨 The Attack Details
The home was clearly identifiable as Jewish due to exterior Hanukkah decorations and signs.
According to door cam footage, the suspect shouted antisemitic slurs such as “F* the Jews”** from his car just before and during the drive-by shooting.
The family was accosted verbally just minutes before the shooting as they returned home from dinner.
The shooter has not yet been apprehended.
🗣️ The Community Response
The family, who survived the attack, shared that they “just survived an antisemitic drive-by shooting.”
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) called it "another dangerous and despicable act of violence."
ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt noted the attack forces Jews to question the traditional pirsumei nisa (publicizing the miracle) of Hanukkah, stating, "Threats to the Jewish community’s safety must not be tolerated or normalized."
🧠 Why It Matters
This is a highly visible, targeted attack on a religious minority during a major holiday, underscoring the severity of the current climate of antisemitism.
The 20 bullets fired and the explicit slurs make the intent undeniable: this was an attempt to terrorize and potentially murder based on religious identity.
The fact that the gunman has not been caught adds to the fear and urgency for the Jewish community.
🧾 The Bottom Line
An armed suspect launched a targeted, antisemitic attack by riddling a Jewish family's Hanukkah-decorated home with 20 bullets while shouting slurs. This act of violence is a direct, frightening example of record-high antisemitism that law enforcement has yet to resolve by apprehending the shooter.
