(Jewish Group) Video shows Alabama teens drawing swastikas on a boy's back
A video showing a group of Alabama teenagers drawing swastikas on a boys back was posted to Snapchat.
A group of boys are seen laughing at a shirtless boy, a student at Mountain Brook Schools, after drawing two large black swastikas and the word heil. Some of the students attend Mountain Brook, the school district said in a statement issued Wednesday, according to CBS42 in Birmingham, and also come from neighboring communities. It is not known where the video was filmed.
MBS condemns all hateful ideologies and actions, the statement said. The conduct exhibited in the video is in direct conflict with the values of the school system. MBS is in the process of investigating the incident and determining the legal parameters for actions occurring outside of school.
The district said it has been in contact with the Mountain Brook Police Department, Birmingham Jewish Federation and local faith leaders regarding the incident.
