More than 50 synagogues in Florida were targeted with bomb threats on Tuesday, WPLG reported.
The Coral Gables Police Department determined that the emailed threats were not credible, according to the ABC affiliate in Miami.
“Another sad day in America for the Jewish community. This new normal is disgusting and one that we, Jews, will refuse to accept,” wrote Bryan Leib, a Republican who is running against Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-Fla.) in Florida’s 25th congressional district.
“We will not back down,” Leib wrote. “We will not be afraid.”
JNS sought comment from the Coral Gables Police Department.
