Two unidentified perpetrators damaged the front door of Rabbi Dov and Runya Wagner, co-directors of Chabad at USC, late Tuesday evening. The motive for the vandalism is unclear. 

In videos posted to USC Chabad’s Instagram account, four people appear to approach the house on bikes before the two walk toward the door. The two perpetrators then kick the front door, breaking the glass, before fleeing with the other two via bicycle. The Daily Trojan has reached out to the Department of Public Safety for comment.

The Wagners’ house has also served as USC’s Chabad House for the past five years while a more permanent center is under construction. On its fence is a sign that reads “Welcome to Chabad @ USC — Shabbat Shalom.”

“I don’t know if this was ‘regular’ vandalism or intentionally targeted, but either way it is so upsetting that a place that has served as a home away from home for thousands of students at USC … was attacked in this way,” Dov Wagner wrote in an Instagram DM to the Daily Trojan.
