OCPD Investigates Anti-Semitic Pamphlets

Anti-Semitic literature with references to the Sikh temple shootings showed up at homes in Oak Creek and South Milwaukee late last week.

Anti-Semitic literature that also references the Aug. 5 shootings at the Oak Creek Sikh temple have showed up on the porches of homes in Oak Creek and South Milwaukee.

Police are trying to determine who is distributing the literature, but say it does not contain direct threats toward any people or establishments, according to the Oak Creek Police Department logbook.

Last Friday and Saturday, several residents reported to Oak Creek police that they received the pamphlet in question, according to the logbook. The South Milwaukee Police Department told police they also took about six reports.
