Suspect in court after five stabbed at New York rabbi's home

A suspect appeared in a New York court on Sunday charged with five counts of attempted murder over a stabbing spree at a rabbi's suburban house -- the latest in a spate of attacks on Jewish targets. Grafton Thomas, 37, allegedly entered the property in Monsey, Rockland County, during celebrations on Saturday evening for the Jewish festival of Hanukkah, knifing several people with a machete before fleeing. The attack was quickly condemned as another incident underscoring growing anti-Semitic violence in the United States.
