A Florida man was charged with writing “Heil Hitler” on a Jewish preschool and causing thousands of dollars of damage to its classrooms, NBC-2 reported.
Michael Dami, 19, targeted the Naples Preschool of the Arts, a part of the Naples Chabad center. He was caught on camera defacing the school in October.
Police reported that Dami broke into the school and used a fire extinguisher to break TVs and bookshelves in the classrooms. He also stole school credit cards.
He then scrawled, “! YOU JEWS NEVER! LEARN!! HEIL HITLER!” on a wall in red lipstick.
Dami’s adopted family is Jewish, and his adopted father said that Dami struggles with drug addiction and mental illness.
