Antisemitic graffiti and torched cars outside IDF soldier’s family home prompt police investigation in St. Louis suburb

Police in Clayton, Missouri, are investigating after finding what they said was “antisemitic graffiti” alongside three cars that were set on fire in the St. Louis neighborhood.

The street was graffitied with the phrase “Death to the IDF,” according to drone footage shared by a local news outlet that obscured a portion of the graffiti including the identity of the intended target.

The police department said in a statement that it believed that the victim was “specifically targeted” and it was investigating the incident as a hate crime.

Leo Terrell, the Trump administration’s domestic antisemitism czar, wrote on X that the “horrific antisemitic attack” targeted a local resident who recently returned home after serving in the Israeli army, adding, “Hateful graffiti outside the family’s home accused him of being a murderer.”

The alleged target has not been publicly identified. But according to public records, the block is home to a family whose son recently completed two years in the IDF and has spoken in the area about his service in Gaza and Lebanon. At least one public appearance was targeted by protesters, according to a first-person account published on a local nonprofit news site.
