Vandals took out several windows early Tuesday morning at a Point Breeze residential property that is being developed by the controversial real estate developer and Philadelphia City Council candidate Ori Feibush, said police.
Police responded to the corner of 20th and Reed streets, where OCF Realty has several single-family homes under construction, and discovered shattered windows and red markings over the real estate development firm's sign.
The incident comes less than two weeks after a a man reportedly walked into Feibush's Center City office and threatened a member of the candidate's campaign staff with a gun.
The developer also reported graffiti on a campaign office's windows and door on the 1500 block of Reed Street earlier this month.
Feibush, who has focused on redeveloping vacant lots and buildings in the city's Point Breeze neighborhood for several years, has a contentious history with the community.
In August 2013, surveillance video captured someone sending bricks through the windows of the Feibush-owned OCF Coffee Shop, located at 20th and Federal streets. A dead dog was left on the the doorstep of Feibush's home years before he made moves for political office.
The developer will face Johnson in the May 19 Democratic primary -- a race that heated up earlier this year when the challenger purchased and starting using domain names, like KenyattaJohnson.net and KenyattaJohnson.org, to steer voters to websites on his own campaign.
