Pittsburgh police have issued more than 160 citations to an Ohio man, saying they've identified him as the suspect in the distribution of bags containing antisemitic materials last month in Squirrel Hill and Shadyside. Police have cited Jeremy Brokaw, 45, of Zanesville, for violating two state statutes: depositing waste and other material on highways, property or waters; and permitting a vehicle owned or controlled by the cited person to be driven to violate other state statutes.
