OAK PARK, Mich. – The City of Oak Park is aware of antisemitic literature distributed in and around the community in the early morning hours of Wednesday July 29, 2026. While we recognize and uphold First
Amendment protections, the City strongly condemns hateful and discriminatory materials of any kind and will uphold the law to the fullest extent possible.

In recent months, Oak Park Public Safety has increased its presence around places of worship, schools, parks, and other community gathering spaces to help ensure the safety and well-being of residents.

The City of Oak Park remains committed to fostering a community where all residents feel safe, welcome, and respected. Acts of violence, intimidation, or threats directed at any individual or group based on religion, race, ethnicity, or identity will not be tolerated.

Residents are encouraged to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity. In an emergency, dial 911. Non-emergency concerns may be reported to Oak Park Public Safety at (248) 691-7520.

We thank our residents and community partners for their continued cooperation and commitment to keeping Oak Park a safe and supportive community for all.
