Two men from Germany, Christoph Rehak and Gunther Manfred Jekschtat, were arrested in Miami Beach after vandalizing a Pride bench with antisemitic symbols. The incident occurred on Monday when police were called to investigate the graffiti found on a bench in Lummus Park, which included the inscription 'Adolf was here' alongside a swastika. Due to the city's surveillance camera system, the Miami Beach Police were able to quickly identify and track down the two suspects. Video recordings show one man writing and drawing the graffiti, while the other attempted to hide the action from onlookers. The two were located at Colony Hotel and, after interrogation, confessed to the acts, subsequently being arrested.
