New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted Sunday that the NYPD's hate crime task force \"has a solid lead on the vile acts of anti-Semitism.\"

The mayor vowed to \"take swift action against the perpetrators,\" adding, \"if you have any more information on this case, contact the NYPD right away.\"

Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. added on Twitter, \"Hate has no place in our community, borough and city. The heinous, anti-Semitic attacks we saw at 4 places of worship in The Bronx will not be tolerated.\"

Scott Richman, director of the New York/New Jersey Anti-Defamation League, tweeted, \"This brazen series of attacks on the Jewish community in #Riverdale over the past few nights is truly shocking. We are in touch with law enforcement who is now out in force and is taking this extremely seriously.\"
