One of the three opponents challenging City of Brownsville District 1 incumbent commissioner Ricardo Longoria says she will call on the Brownsville Police Department to investigate the defacing of her campaign signs with a Nazi swastika and horns.
Nurith Galonski Pizana, who said she was born and raised Jewish,said she will ask police to investigate the apparent anti-Semitic defacing of her signs and said that the vandals may have been caught on surveillance cameras nearby.
"I find it unnerving that a hate crime like this could happen in Brownsville," Galonsky posted on her Facebook page.

Calling it "an outrage against our community," Galonsky said Brownsville "must never tolerate hate crimes."
The defaced campaign signs are located across the street from the Central Public Library on land owned by her father Abraham Galonsky.
She said there are surveillance cameras outside the library and at the neighboring Stripes convenience store.
Besides Longoria, Michael Rodriguez and William Garza are running for District 1.
