Bochur Assaulted with Metal Bat in Broad Daylight
CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — At around 5:00pm yesterday, a bochur was walking on Troy Ave. near Maple St. when he was approached by three suspicious looking youths.
They asked him what time it was; as soon as he looked down at his iPod to check the time, a fourth individual approached from behind with a metal bat and proceeded to swing.
He first struck the bochur in the back, and when he turned around – swung towards his chest with the bat, making contact with the bochur’s wrists.
Thankfully, the bochur had had the presence of mind to start inching towards the street at the beginning of the incident, and was now able to back up and run across the street.
The four assailants then fled towards the William Reid housing projects on East New York Ave.
The victim notified the police, but they said that not much could be done to catch the perpetrators.
Visa Versa
Lets do the same to them and see what happens!

Hashem Yeracheim! I hope someone called Hatzoloh and the bochur was checked out in a hospital. May he have a complete refua!
carry a gun
and shoot
thats the only way these people will learn
shame on the PoLess
If four Bouchrim attacked a “youth” with a Metal Bat , would the police have the same response ?

they were probably too busy giving me a cell phone ticket when my phone was in my pocket and I drive a car with built in enabled bluetooth. maybe if the guy was double parked while swinging the bat the cops would have got him
I wish
I hope the bochur is ok, i just wish the bochur would have ducked and imagine what those muggers would think they get hit in the face by a metal bat by one of their own!

TO #4 LETS TRY IT WE WILL FIND OUT

Obviously no, that is why they are trying to extradite Mr. Sochet from Israel. There are different standards for us Jewish and them. We NEED our community leaders to pressure the police and city officials to provide us with adequate protection for our community.
Bat Man
Would have loved it if the story had gone like this “the assailant swung the bat, which was blocked at the assailant’s wrist by the bochur, who then disarmed him. Now holding a weapon, the other perps ran like the dogs they are.
Self defense can save your life.
Fed Up
These racial attacks occurs, because of hate speech and lies broadcasted by people like Al Sharpton and Charles Barron.
Outraged Out-of-towner
Why isn’t every single CH resident carying mace? WHY?!?!?!
maybe the CHCC should buy in bulk and distribute it.
Comon people. stop being so defenseless.

when will CH install security cameras everywhere so we can identify these animals?

I don’t understand ,nothing they can do. Maybe he could of recognized who they were/
Kahana Chai
Every Jew a .22
Levi
Nah, .22 Isn’t good enough! Keep the Jews alive with a .45!
Jewish dude
Every body go to the police department ask for a permit to carry a pistol. If they say no then the next election we will vote somebody in that will say yes.

I’m an African American male from NC and I currently live in CH. I have never thought it was this much racial tension in NYC. I have always been taught to like all people, nomatter their color of their skin nor religion/culture. Reading this story is disturbing on many levels. A young man was approached by a group of nobodies. I hope the young man is doing fine. Not all people act the same way, I have a lot friends from different backgrounds, Black,Jewish, Hispanic, Russian etc. Truth be told, when I hear situations like this; I’m truly disgusted.

Thank you for distinguishing between African Americans and Nobodies who happen to be African Americans.
One reason for stereotyping (which is unfair) is that community leaders are not willing to do that. And they are not willing to draw lines within their community between people with morals and people without. When the community rejects Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson et al, the community will be more trusted automatically.
