Someone placed a noose outside a Brooklyn church over the weekend in what is being probed as a possible bias crime, according to police.

The symbol of black oppression was found Saturday morning on some bushes outside the United House of Prayer for all People, a Pentecostal church on Park Place in Crown Heights, police said.

A source familiar with the investigation said officials are reviewing security camera footage from a building across the street.

Cops confirmed they are investigating whether the incident was racially motivated.
