VIDEO: Man hangs Israeli and American flag on mosque in Salt Lake City

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — A man was caught on surveillance camera hanging an Israeli and American flag on the side of a mosque in Salt Lake City.

Officers responded to an incident at Masjid Al Noor Mosque on Sunday, June 1, the Salt Lake City Police Department confirmed to ABC4.com.

The surveillance video shows a man approaching the mosque and hanging up a flag that features a split design of the Israeli and American flags.

In a statement to ABC4.com, SLCPD said that after conducting an initial investigation, officers did not find any property damage, vandalism, or reported injuries. However, SLCPD also said that the incident will be documented and reviewed “for any potential follow-up as appropriate.”

The Council on American-Islamic Relations described this as an “incident of pro-genocide vandalism,” and CAIR National Deputy Director Edward Amed Mitchell said it was an attempt to intimidate the congregation of a Utah mosque.

CAIR also reported that the FBI responded to the incident, but the FBI told ABC4.com that it is its policy not to confirm or deny the existence of investigations. However, they also said that the FBI “takes threats to houses of worship very seriously” and that they work closely with local law enforcement to keep communities safe.

The Masjid Al Noor mosque also houses the Islamic Society of Greater Salt Lake.

ABC4.com reached out to Masjid Al Noor Mosque for comment and is waiting for a response.
