WINDSOR, Conn. — Police said at least one noose and five more ropes that could be interpreted as nooses were found hanging inside an Amazon construction site in Windsor.

Windsor police said officers first responded to the construction site on April 27 after receiving a suspicious activity complaint. A construction supervisor told police a safety team documented the incident, removed and threw away the noose.

A viewer sent FOX61 News a photo of the apparent noose. Police confirmed the rope in the photo was the one under investigation.

Police said an email was sent out to all the employees telling them of the incident. Police added the area where the noose was found is not monitored by surveillance cameras and hundreds of employees from multiple companies have access to it.

Officers said there are not any leads or suspects at this time.

On April 28, police again responded to the second report of a rope thrown around a beam. Police say that incident was not a noose.

Police responded a third time to the site on April 29 after they were told there were five additional ropes that could be interpreted as nooses, found at various locations on different floors in the building.

The ropes from this incident were taken as evidence and police said they will be tested to identify a potential suspect.

The president of the Connecticut NAACP released a statement on the incidents:

“It was the NAACP that fought to get these hate crimes in the books and we want to make sure the individuals who committed these hate crimes are held accountable, to the full extent of the law.”

Police say the general contractor has been "proactive in addressing these incidents" and working with them. On Wednesday morning, the site had a meeting discussing the initial incident. An anti-discrimination/discrimination awareness training was also held on-site.

A spokesperson for Amazon said, “Amazon does not tolerate any behavior deemed hateful, racist, or discriminatory.”

A $5,000 reward is being offered by the general contractor for any information identifying anyone responsible for the incidents.

Police investigating noose found at Amazon construction site in Windsor​

Police in Windsor are investigating after a noose and several ropes that could be interpreted as nooses were found at an Amazon construction site on multiple days this week.

On Tuesday, police were dispatched to the site near Kennedy Road, where a new fulfillment center is being built. A supervisor told officers that “earlier in the day a hangman’s noose was discovered hanging from a steel beam on the second floor of the building,” police said.

The site safety team took note of the incident then got rid of the noose and sent an email to all employees regarding the incident, the supervisor told police.

The noose was hung in an area without surveillance cameras, police said, and because the area has “hundreds of employees from various companies,” there are currently no suspects or leads.

The following day, another rope was thrown around a beam, but police emphasized that incident did not involve not a noose. The construction site held a safety meeting and an anti-discrimination training session with all employees that morning, they said.

By Thursday morning, Windsor detectives were called about about an additional five ropes “that could be interpreted as nooses [and] were located at various locations on different floors throughout the building.”

The ropes were seized by police in hopes of identifying suspects.

Police said its unclear whether the incidents were a potential hate crime or act of intimidation.

“There were no other messages, markings or other forms of communication in or around the facility that would provide information as to any intent or target of these nooses,” police said.

The site is offering a $5,000 reward for any information that would identify those responsible.

Coincidentally no cameras on the construction site were functional. What is an iwitness?

 

[Zbk3VmLfujjzjxBd43tL]

This is like exactly a year after Bubba Wallace and the FBI discovered that garage doors are sometimes pulled down by nooses. And a construction site? Better grab my jogging boots and running hammer!

It's concerning that their first priority is anti-discrimination sessions, rather then mental health checkups. Then again, it's part of a pattern of similar "interpreted nooses" showing up on worksites.

It's incredibly bizarre that that's where we're at now, a random noose with no other even vague signifier that it's a racist message is now questioned as to whether it's a racist message.

How far back would you have to go to find a culture as paranoid as this one?

Even the police press release says that there's nothing to provide any context whatsoever to it, other than it being a random noose. It's the construction company and whoever reported it initially to them that believes, publicly at least, that it has some racist intent behind it. Probably don't wanna be swamped by the SocJus mob and lost that contract work from social media outrage, so they're getting ahead of the curve.

OT but I'm fairly certain there was a thread posted on this exact thing a couple hours before this one was.

Hmmmm....jussie smolett did it

Every year there seems to be a bullshit race hoax regarding nooses. Do these people think about public lynchings when they see a rope?

Every year? I feel like it’s only been a couple months since the last one

That's...um...not how it works up here in New Sicily.

Yeah, my mind defaulted to "it's a goddamn amazon warehouse, no wonder the employees are suicidal"
but y'know
muh shekels payday from MUH LEGIT HATECRIMES

We're also at the point that ANY knot with a portion of loop in it you can stick more than a finger into is now "noose like"

By that "logic", anyone who bows up their shoelaces in the standard fashion has just created TWO NOOSES!!!!!!

Call me when you have at least six turns on a GENUINE hangman's knot before you even break out the "other" N-word, everyone.

Can't wait for the few dozen FBI agents to waste resources on what they will find to be some construction stuff.

 

[ColtWalker1847]

First off... maybe edit down the post to remove the ads and fluff that isn't part of the article?

I'm with the woke news article on this. One day, there's a noose which is removed by cops and the next day there is a rope hanging, then multiple ropes the day after that. Yeah, I'm going to go with it being quite possibly an edgelord testing their limits. It's like those douchebags who get prominent swastika tattoos but them going counter-clockwise.

But there may be a construction related reason for these, but if that was the case... it seems odd for them to get reported and no one said anything, or like mentioned "Hey, we use a ropes a lot to hang our tools." Given there were more ropes lying around the day after the mandatory training, I'd put my money on edgelord first.

I wasn't aware that "sensitivity training" makes it so that ropes with loops tied in them are unnecessary.

The cops are on the record saying all the new stuff "were not nooses". The guy, likely an inspector, just changed up the way he tied his rope so it wouldn't be mistaken anymore but the jobsite moral panic had already set in and they are seeing phantom nooses out of any bit of rope now.

Yeah. That isn't a hangman's noose. It's a loop with a knot. It's exactly the kind of thing you would see on a construction site in a thousand places.

That and the TONS of little girls getting their clits cut off in the name of "enrichment".
And UK STILL does not have the grooming gang report.
But,
Priorities though right?

The British government is fundamentally illegitimate and should be destroyed.

a lot of people don't really know anything outside the world of phone apps, and seeing an actual rope in person freaks them out because that's what white people use to kill black people.

Ban ropes. Ban trees too, since they were complicit in the hangings of black people a century ago. I for one am sick of these smug trees and their white supremacy.

 

[polyester]

So an out of context noose, assuming they are nooses, is a hate crime?

This isn't a law to be proud of, that's some bitch-nigga shit.

The concept of "hate crimes" as a way to increase the punishment for perps who committed wrongthink during their murder/arson/assault/etc., is already pretty dubious.

But when it's used to punish something that would otherwise be just a petty infraction or no crime at all, it becomes downright Orwellian.
How the hell are these laws not struck down by the courts?

The Family-Friendly Noose Song_Full-HD.mp4

There was a nonfriendly version that straight up suggested you neck yourself and it got him demonitized so he had to upload the "family friendly" version". The first lyric was "This is how you tie a noose, it's easy if you're not obtuse, all you need is a piece of rope and abandon all your hope".
