NYPD hate crime unit investigating after spree of alleged antisemitic attacks in Brooklyn 

The New York Police Department (NYPD)’s hate crime unit is investigating a spree of alleged antisemitic attacks which were reported to have taken place over the weekend.

The incidents reportedly all took place in the Williamsburg area of Brooklyn during the Jewish Sabbath.

At 22:26 on Friday, a 24-year-old visibly Jewish man was punched in the face. CCTV footage shows a man running up behind the Jewish man before striking him.

A second alleged antisemitic was also reported to have taken place on Friday.

A third incident saw multiple Yeshiva school buses being vandalised with swastikas.  

Last month, New York police arrested a woman who was suspected of making antisemitic comments to three Jewish children aged seven, two and eight, in Brooklyn. The suspect reportedly walked away after telling the three siblings that “Hitler should have killed you all. I’ll kill you and know where you live,” and spitting on the eight-year-old boy.
