Police in Belgium arrested a man who is suspected of trying to ram with his car an Orthodox man and a child on a street in Antwerp.
The incident Saturday morning was filmed by security cameras. It shows a black Seat Ibiza car swerving sharply while speeding on Isabellalei, a central street in Antwerp, toward the alleged victim and a boy, who is the man’s son, according to the Antwerp-based Joods Actueel Jewish monthly.
The car is seen intersecting a bike path, apparently while speeding. The car then climbs the curb as the two alleged victims are walking toward it, prompting them to jump away from the curb and toward the safety of the building facades.
They jump behind a lamp post. The car swerves back wildly, returning to the road from its incursion into the sidewalk. The father ran after the car as it sped away.
Joods Actueel reported that witnesses said the driver had foreign origins. The report did not name the man or offer any additional information on his identity.
He was tracked down through the footage of the license plate. The man is to be arraigned Sunday. He is suspected of attempted manslaughter.
Definitely Not Drunk, No Way!
To #3 do you really think mocking someone else, just for asking a question (even when the answer is obvious to most of us, is no excuse to put someone else down, for not knowing) will help end the Galus and bring Moshiach? My question is rhetorical, just so you know. To #16 Those are good points, however even with all that, a terrorist was able to murder a British soldier in broad daylight in public and got away with it. I was born, raised and still live in America. I know America is going the way of Europe, just… Read more »
CHAPTZEM!!! On a more serious note I’d be very angry if that happened to me and I would definantly hunt down the guy
Yep, EUROPE (except we always had better borders and weI have brexit so I’m safe 🙂
AMERICA is nisht andersh!!!
WHERE DO YOU LIVE????
Not everything is antisemitism!!!
He isn’t randomly swerving watch the vid again, and do pay close attention towards the end when the guy goes perfectly back on the road and swiftly through the narrow gap between cars, denying the truth is only harming yourself, Europe always has been, is and probably always will be extreamly antisemitic. You aren’t safer in Belgium because Europe has no borders. Get out fast!!!
The guy was DRUNK for goodness sake!!!!
GET YOUR SOURCES RIGHT BEFORE ACCUSING!!!!!!
Antwerp is a good place!!!!!
If you don’t have any smart and true things to say pls keep your mouth shut!!!!
Wake up. Dont feel as if you are so safe in the US either. Times change, people change, or show their true colors. And for all those yelling for european Jewry to just leave to Israel, you think anyone an just get up, leave their lives and go to another country to live in which is btw a very difficult one parnassah wise and people wise! Language, mentality, everything is different. Think before you say things cause telling others what to do is easiest.
NO ONE IS SAFE in galus! Your comment ignores and disrespects the thousands of victims of terror (and their families) living in the holy land. I do however strongly agree that the US is not as safe as we choose to believe, and our American brethren have put their guard down too low.
I would never leave London! (except to ey with moshiach) England is safe and I would never exchange the quality of life here for any place in the world! #GoldersGreen#TheBeesKnees!
And move to EY! Don’t kid yourself that the US is any safer. It’s a false impression.
And now let Europe enjoy the ugly vacuum filled up with radical , crazy Muslims who are coming after the Europeans next.
Unless the guy was texting and driving….
Take all your stuff and leave europe.
Whats so great about it. Im english but ive left. Brish jews save yourselves. Dont kid. One another cos you think exgeware is bees knees lol. Or golders green. Its o v er. Take your gelt and leave. T h etes gonna be a mosque in golders green. The place is finnished. Dont fool yourselves
They are getting what they deserve after a long history of Jewish persecution, they won’t get the full extent of it if Yidden are still there and all you are doing is risking, putting yourself in harms way (G-D forbid) by living in their blood soaked lands
Duh I wonder why……..
Baruch Hashem that they were able to run away to the safty of the building!
Why did the person driving try to hit them?
