Governor Tom Wolf issued a statement on Wednesday denouncing an incident that happened in Philadelphia earlier this week.

Late Sunday evening, a red pickup truck rolled past Al-Aqsa Islamic Society mosque and an unknown person threw a “cooked pig’s head” toward the building. Surveillance video at the mosque captured the incident on the 1500 block of Germantown Avenue. Consumption of pork is forbidden in Islam, as many Muslims keep halal dietary practices.

Since then, civic leaders have condemned the act and stood in solidarity with leaders from the Muslim community.

Wolf said that it was "a direct affront to every Pennsylvanian who holds dear the principles that this commonwealth was founded on."

Full transcript below:

 “Pennsylvania and Pennsylvanians will not tolerate hate. We will not tolerate injustice. We will not tolerate unfairness. All of us should be outraged by what happened outside the Al Aqsa Islamic Society mosque in Philadelphia this Sunday night. What happened is a direct affront to Muslims and is a direct affront to every Pennsylvanian who holds dear the principles that this commonwealth was founded on.

“William Penn founded our commonwealth on the principles of honesty, justice, fairness and tolerance for all people. He came here on a ship called the "Welcome."

“Our Muslim community is part of the fabric of Pennsylvania that makes us great. Its members are our brothers and sisters, our aunts and uncles, our fathers and our mothers. They own businesses and help build our communities.

“The commonwealth stands ready to assist the city of Philadelphia in any way it can to get to the heart of what happened on Sunday night and to bring the perpetrator of this terrible injustice to justice.”

Philadelphia police are still looking for a suspect. Mayor Nutter on Wednesday offered a $2,000 reward for information that can lead to a charge.
