The NYPD has released a video in connection to what they say is a pattern of assaults in Crown Heights.
The video shows the assault of a Chassidic Jewish man by a group of 7 black teens, in an incident which occurred last Tuesday evening on Lincoln Place near Albany Avenue.
In a video of the same attack released earlier, the group of teens is seen running after the Jewish man, hitting him in the head with a chair. They are then seen chasing him down the block, and one can be seen punching the man in the head.
Police say the same group of teens is wanted in connection with this and other assaults in the areas of the 71st and 77th Precincts in Crown Heights.
In the second incident, a Jewish man was assaulted by what appears to be the same group on Union Street between Albany and Kingston Avenues at approximately 6:00 pm.
The group of black teenaged males approached him from behind. One of the males punched the Jewish man in the head, while the other took a video of the attack, police said.
The investigation was referred to the Hate Crimes unit and is being treated as a bias attack, NYPD said.

Police are failing to do their jobs .
What is so hard to find these thugs.
The police should go to the local schools around and show it to the principal to identify them .
This is outrageous.
Our Job is to protect ourself. Never, never rely on anyone to protect you. Learn what you need to learn and get busy organizing!
if only they would
Don’t waste your time attempting to apprehend these thugs. A sound beating administered either by a parent or some other designee will go much further.
This sick state will do nothing about it . What’s the point pray tell in identifying the criminals. They won’t go to jail
Why they cant get them???????
Where they disappeared?
I cant believe
7 ppl and no police catch them!!!!!
TEACH IN SCHOOLS:RESPECT !!!
ONE MINUTE OF SILENCE
Minute of silence
while they are in prison For a few months (if at all) will not stop this. Only severe consequences- including the use of decisive and as harsh as necessary self defense retaliation- will put the fear in them permanently.
