Shots fired at krishna temple in usa: A famous Hindu temple in the city of Spanish fork of the northern Utah state of America has been shot several times by targeting Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple. The local police suspect that the attack may be inspired by religious hatred. The temple is located near the main road and it was attacked for several consecutive nights in the month of June.

Temple dome and bullets reached the window
Temple officials said that the attackers opened fire on the main building, dome, arches and second floor window of the worship room. The police department of Utah County has started investigating the matter. At present, it is not decided whether this attack has been carried out in a sense of hatred or not, but its possibility is not being denied.

The first incident occurred on 18 June
According to local media, the temple co-founder Y Warden heard a loud voice at the radio center near the temple on the night of 18 June. At first they felt that maybe a cracker or some children were mischief, but the next morning, bullet marks were found in the walls and windows.

Bullets fired twice in a single night
The same night, bullets were fired towards the temple again and after that there was an attack on 20 June. In the camera paintings seen by the security personnel of the temple, a train stops near the fence of the temple, someone gets down from it and shoots the temple and then the car goes fast.

So far, more than 20 bullets have been fired on the temple building. Some bullets were fired from such a distance that they reached the dome and crowded areas directly, which deepened that the attackers were to spread fear and deliberately damage the temple.

Temple administration said- deliberate attack
The co-founder warden of this temple associated with the International Krishnabhavamrit Sangh (ISKCON) said that it is not a simple sabotage, but a thoughtful attack. He said, “Somebody came here with the intention of deliberately spreading fear and harming our peaceful community.”

Such violence for the first time in 30 years
The warden also said that it has been more than three decades for the establishment of this temple and so far such violence has never happened. He said that this temple is a peaceful and cultural place and attack on it is an attack on the entire humanity.

India condemned the incident
The Consulate of India in San Francisco has strongly condemned the recent firing incident at ISKCON Sri Radha Krishna Temple at Spanish Fork in Utah. The embassy has given full support to all the devotees and the community and appealed to the local administration to take quick action against the culprits.
