Woman abuses Jewish mother collecting children from school in Golders Green

A woman shouted, “what are you doing? Is that because you are Jewish?” at a Jewish mother parking by a school in order to collect her children.

The incident occurred yesterday in Golders Green, and the assailant, who was a passenger in a nearby passing vehicle, was described as a white woman with a large build. Her light brown hair was tied back in a ponytail and she was wearing a light-coloured woolly jumper. The driver of the vehicle was reportedly a white woman with straight black hair.

The passenger was in a car with the registration number PN15FWP.

The incident was reported by Shomrim North West London, a Jewish volunteer neighbourhood watch patrol.
