Several residents in Stafford County's White Oak area woke up to anti-Semitic flyers strewed across their properties. Stafford County Sheriff's Office reported several calls about the flyers, which were placed at residences. Detective S.M. Danyluk has obtained copies of the flyer and is actively investigating the incident, requesting any residents with video footage be submitted online.
Department spokesman Ryan Wilbur said while houses were not specifically targeted, the flyers were distributed randomly along sidewalks and driveways. The flyers were inside plastic bags weighed down by rice. Wilbur said the papers "were generalized flyers" and they "contained misinformation regarding religion, media, and conspiracies."
