A peaceful rally was held in front of a Queen Village café Friday after the Arab-owned Lombard Café was vandalized this week and many people, including Governor Josh Shapiro, are condemning the incident."I was very upset and angry when I heard about this, knowing this was a neighborhood business and someone who is welcoming and open to everyone regardless of race and religion," stated customer Samantha Pinto.

I came through the back exit and I found that the door was open, as well, and there were also crowbar marks on the door."She says her security cameras were unplugged, the cash register had been tampered with, doors damaged from being pried open and the vandals left a message behind with stickers."When I came back outside, I came around the front and there were pro-Israel stickers but not only that, but there were white power stickers all over the front of my shop," Jasmine added.
