Crown Heights Shomrim has released footage of a mugging at knifepoint which took place in Crown Heights on Tuesday.
The video shows one of two separate criminal incidents in Crown Heights which occurred on Tuesday afternoon, 1 hour apart from each other.
The first incident occurred near Montgomery Street and Schenectady Avenue at approximately 1:00 pm when a group of black teenagers approached a visibly Jewish man and shoved him. They immediately fled and the victim was not injured.
The 2nd incident occurred at approximately 2:15 pm near Empire Blvd and Troy Avenue when a group of black teenagers brandishing a knife approached a visibly Jewish man and attempted to rob him of his phone.
Shmira told COLlive they suspect that the attackers were the same or related to the group which has been terrorizing Jewish residents in recent days.
Please be aware of your surroundings at all times especially now that there’s an increase in crime. In case of an emergency, call 911 and Shmira 24/7 at 718-221-0303.

This is the norm these days we had our chance to elect zeldin .
Either the majority of new yorkers want this or the elections were tampered with.

The fact that NOT ONE of them or of the many others that committed crimes against our community are in prison may just be the reason.. what would make them stop? They are being emboldened to do worse and worse. It’s sad that our leaders just keep going back to the local anti semites and really believe that they are the answer.
Unfortunately I had to call them a few times over the last few months. THEY ARE THE BEST. ALWAYS THERE WITHIN MINUTES
Thank you Shomrim for the outstanding work
Are these incidents now daily occurrences or will there be a post on what is doing to prevent and stop these crimes from happening? ה ישמור!
It is time to move to Florida where law and order is understood and appreciated. My house is up for sale right now, can’t wait for the warm weather and sanity.
No permit needed. Google it. Carry one!!
Shomrim should have some too!
This insanity MUST come to an end. The only solution is to be armed and clabber these animals. that will teach the perpetrator a lesson and will frighten any potential mogger or assault they’ll think twice before committing a crime making crown hights a little bit safer.
Why do we have statements from both Shomrim & Shmira but not the NYPD. NYPD has cameras all over our streets to spy on us, but when we need the footage for crimes against us its never available. The community council needs to answer here…. ridiculous.
