Jewish Man Assaulted on Eastern Parkway
A Jewish man sitting on an Eastern Parkway bench was assaulted by a Black man in an unprovoked attack. Bystanders and Shomrim apprehended the suspect.
The incident occurred at around 12:00pm on Eastern Parkway between Kingston and Albany Avenues. The victim, a Jewish man in his 40’s, was sitting on a bench and talk on his cellphone when a black man suddenly began pummeling him.
A group of bystanders sprang into action and attempted to apprehend the assailant. Eventually he was stopped at the intersection of Albany Avenue and subdued. A large number of Shomrim volunteers arrived on scene and a quickly notified the police.
While on the ground the suspect freely admitted that he did in fact assault the man while declaring that he recently “took crack”. The suspect was visibly under the influence of a narcotic.
Thankfully the victim was not seriously hurt and declined medical attention.
When police arrived they took the suspect into custody and called an ambulance for him. Officers at the scene said that they would be taking him to the psyche ward.
