New Jersey gunmen targeted kosher market, says mayor

The gunmen involved in a firefight that left six people dead in Jersey City clearly targeted a Jewish market, the mayor said, fuelling suspicions that the bloodshed was an anti-Semitic attack.

Steven Fulop refused to call it an anti-Semitic attack but said surveillance video showed the gunmen driving slowly through the city’s streets and then stopping outside a kosher grocery store, where they calmly got out of their van and immediately opened fire.
