Ocasio-Cortez receives death threats, campaign office vandalized, aide says

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-N.Y.) campaign headquarters in The Bronx was vandalized Sunday with an anti-Israel message and red paint splashed across a photo of the progressive lawmaker’s face, according to her campaign and independent social media posts.

Ocasio-Cortez campaign manager Oliver Hidalgo-Wohlleben said the New York Democrat has also faced death threats in recent days.

The New York Police Department (NYPD) confirmed to The Hill that officers responded to a 911 call regarding a “criminal mischief incident” at the campaign office early Monday morning.

“Upon arrival, officers observed the facade of the location defaced with red paint. There are no arrests and the investigation remains ongoing,” an NYPD spokesperson said.
