Anger At Wednesday’s Assault In Crown Heights Grows, Activist Geoffrey Davis Calls Out Attack

by CrownHeights.info

Crown Height activist Geoffrey Davis has come out with a blistering condemnation on Wednesday’s attack on a Crown Heights father.

“I am calling on [for] the arrest and conviction of these individuals from the 71st precinct,” Davis said in a video posted to social media. “This can not be tolerated under any degree, and I speak out against all forms of violence.”

As previously reported on CrownHeights.info, the incident took place on Montgomery Street in Crown Heights as the Jewish man was attempting to park his car. During his attempt, the gang felt that he had “bumped” their car, a phenomenon that is hardly uncommon in the crowded Borough of Brooklyn.

What is uncommon was the response from the people in the car.

Apparently infuriated, the thugs began to follow the Jewish man as he searched for another parking spot, catching up to him a block later and cutting him off with their vehicle. At first, the Jewish man cordially spoke with them as they demanded money for damage to the vehicle, but it did not end well.

Instead of conversation, the gang’s response was violence.

Surveillance video of the beatdown shows the gang of thugs pummeling the Jewish man as he sat inside the car along with his five-year-old son, causing significant injuries to his face. After being hit more than ten times, the gang left the scene.

Crown Heights Shomrim and Hatzalah were called and the Jewish man was transported to Maimonides hospital for his injuries.

Davis ended his video by sending his prayers to the victim of the assault.
