Farmingville, NY – Earlier this week, a former Hamas leader called for a Global Day of Jihad on Friday, October 13. While there are no credible threats that have been issued in Brookhaven, the Town is providing heightened security at Town facilities and increasing our public safety presence at houses of worship.
I have spoken with our Suffolk County District Attorney and police, as well as leaders in the Jewish and Muslim community, and we will remain vigilant for any suspect activity. We ask residents to please report any suspicious activity immediately to law enforcement.
