Hogan put out a statement on Twitter, saying in part:
"[Saturday's] senseless acts of violence against members of the Jewish faith as they peacefully practiced their religion is despicable and sickening. Maryland stands in solidarity with the Jewish community here at home and across the nation. Together, we are stronger than hate."
