Police Chief Charles Bordeleau says an arrest has been made in connection with a series of racist and anti-Semitic incidents that have taken place in Ottawa over the past week. Bordeleau later told reporters that a young offender had been arrested in the early morning hours of Saturday at the Soloway Jewish Community Centre on Nadolny Sachs Private near Broadview Avenue. Police sources said the young offender is believed to be responsible for all of the spray-paint attacks this week. RelatedBordeleau wouldn’t offer any details about the police investigation, only to offer his support to the work of the force. However, both Bordeleau and Watson admitted there’s always a concern for copycat offenders.
