Authorities ask public for information on Lisbon antisemitic vandalism

The Waukesha County Sheriff’s Office has turned to the public for help in identifying who sprayed antisemitic and Bible references on the Village of Lisbon’s 9/11 memorial and municipal offices earlier in May.

Authorities believe the vandalism occurred overnight May 8-9, Waukesha County Sheriff Lt. Nicholas Wenzel said in a May 26 news release. Though an investigation began shortly afterward, the case remains unresolved, prompting a broader search for information.

“We are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying those responsible for this vandalism,” Wenzel said in the release.

Anyone with information to share is asked to contact WCSO Detective Jerry Stilling at 262-246-5228 or submit an anonymous tip through Waukesha County Crime Stoppers at stopcrimewaukesha.com.
