A Jewish-owned ice cream shop closed after its windows were shattered and 'FREE PALESTIEN' was spray painted on the storefront. Now the incident is being investigated as a hate crime.
Police are investigating a vandalism incident that left an ice cream shop with pro-Palestinian graffiti and broken windows as a hate crime, according to the chain's Jewish owner. 'Last week, on October 25, 2023, our flagship ice cream shop in the heart of the Mission District was vandalized, badly damaged, and plastered with graffiti,' Smitten Ice Cream owner Robyn Sue Fisher wrote on her company's site.
Fisher has sold ice cream in San Francisco for over a decade, according to the shop's website. She originally began selling ice cream out of a Radio Flyer wagon she pulled around the city. The chain now has locations in San Francisco, San Jose and Las Vegas. 'When I learned what happened at the store and saw the shattered and graffitied glass, I initially felt only fear and deep sadness,' Fisher wrote. 'We cannot choose how others treat us, but we can choose how we respond.
