Deliveroo courier stabs Just Eat deliveryman in antisemitic spat in Rome
Police in Rome are reportedly searching for a Deliveroo courier suspected of stabbing a fellow deliveryman in an antisemitic spat.
The incident took place outside a McDonald’s over the weekend, with the assailant reported to have ranted about the Jews as he and the other deliveryman, of Just Eat, waited. It is understood that the victim protested and the perpetrator stabbed him with a knife.
The victim was apparently left with lacerations on his face but was otherwise not seriously harmed. The assailant fled on his bicycle.
It is understood that both men are middle-aged.
Earlier this year, it was reported that Deliveroo and two delivery men in France are facing legal action after two kosher restaurant owners in Strasbourg claimed that the delivery men had refused to deliver their food because for reasons of antisemitism.
