A Jewish man was attacked and robbed in a disturbing incident in Crown Heights, Thursday night. The victim, a Chasidic Jewish resident of Crown Heights, was wearing traditional Jewish garb.
The incident occurred Thursday evening near Eastern Parkway and Albany Ave at approximately 7:30PM. The perpetrator snuck behind the victim and viciously attacked him, repeatedly punching him in the head and face, causing injuries. The perpetrator then stole the victim’s cell phone. After assaulting and robbing the victim, the perpetrator called the victim a [expletive] dirty Jew and fled the scene.
Crown Heights Shmira and the NYPD searched extensively for the perpetrator but he had already fled the area.
The incident is under investigation as a hate crime robbery with the NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force handling the investigation. Crown Heights Shmira is actively assisting the NYPD in this investigation and was able to track the perpetrator via video until he fled into the subway.
Shmira urges the community to be alert and aware of your surroundings at all times.
The victim was transported to the hospital in stable condition.

This was on a considered safe street in crown heights and at a safe hour! What was the outcome of the security meeting at the JCM? What’s the plan going forward to deter these perpetrators? Where’s the continuous police presence when the kinus, cteen and peg Isha are over
Are we allowed to shoot in self defense yet?
Nobody is coming to save us
And the only ones claiming to care are the same people that created this issue to begin with by releasing these repeat criminals and defunding the police.

Yes the FBI is busy setting up the next attack on your block.
There is no real police presence in CH. They can find him IF they want to.
at least this time there will hopefully not be some couch potatoes asking why someone was walking alone at x hour of the day. Hopefully there will not be anyone asking – why wasn’t this guy walking with a group of people? Or why wasn’t he looking 360 degrees as he walked?
What I will ask though is, where is the shomer yisroel? where is the brocho that kan tzivo hashem?
ABSOLUTELY NO COVERING UP YOUR FACE IN THE STREETS

May be difficult to find because all covered up and assumed to be a man. Could be a woman. Praying.
