Symbol of hate put on forklift

News Story
- 25 Oct 2007 ( #333 ) - NEW YORK, NY, United States
<1 min read
A pair of hangman's nooses was found dangling from a forklift in a Long Island public works garage last Wednesday.

Daily News reported police are investigating the incident as a possible hate crime.

The find is the latest in a spate of nooses that have appeared in the area in the past few weeks.

On October 11, a noose was discovered hanging from a streetlight in front of a post office near Ground Zero.

Nooses are a symbol of racist lynchings in America's old South.
