The incidents in New York City fit a different pattern than what is often seen nationally, in part because far-right and white supremacist groups have less influence in the city, the police said. The increase is being propelled largely by anti-Semitic incidents, which were up 90 percent.
As of June 2, there had been 184 hate crimes reported in the city so far this year, a 64 percent increase over the same period in 2018, they said.
