A Jewish man on Kingston Ave in Crown Heights became the victim of an assault Wednesday night after two moped riding thugs punched and kicked him without provocation.

According to reports, the Jewish man was standing on Empire Blvd and Kingston Ave around 11:20pm when the two, riding together on a moped, swerved near where he was standing and one of them punched and kicked him.

The Jewish man immediately called Crown Heights Shomrim, who responded in less than a minute and quickly located the assailants.

“Our vols responded for an assault as these two perps on a moped punched and kicked the victim and made off,” Crown Heights Shomrim wrote on social media. “Despite a fast and large response, they managed to get away. Video and dash cam footage of perps was shared with NYPD. A report was filed by
@NYPD71Pct.”

According to reports, the moped riding thugs had been driving with unsafe maneuvers and the Shomrim volunteers ultimately lost them.
