Trouble-Makers Attempt to Inflame Accident Scene
CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — A 9-year-old Jewish boy riding his bicycle was struck by a slow moving car and knocked down as he crossed a street, the shock and fear sent the kid fleeing the scene.
A passing Shomrim member was approached by a witness who related what had transpired, the member called for back-up and Hatzalah while he located the child and returned with him to the scene. The car did not flee the scene.
The incident took place at around 6:30pm at the intersection of Lefferts and Kingston. A large Black crowd formed and attempted to enflame the scene by turning it into a racial matter, calling out “call ACS on the Jew b****,” referring to the Administration for Children’s Services implying that the mother of the child was at fault for the accident.
As more Shomrim members, Hatzalah and EMS arrived on scene the crowd dispersed and the scene quickly calmed down.
The driver, a Black woman told a member of Shomrim how embarrassed she was at the behavior of the group, “it was a simple accident, I made a mistake, all I care about is the safety and well being of the boy” pointing at her car and adding “that can be replaced and insurance will cover any injuries, but the boy cannot. Thank g-d he is ok.”
After being checked out, the boy put his helmet back on and continued riding his bike in good health.
