At around 9:20 pm tonight, Motzoai Shabbos, a Member of Shomrim and his father were walking down Kingston Ave. toward Lefferts Ave.. As they past 451 Kingston, a large building (the one with the 2 fires in one day), a group of black teens attacked and assaulted them. The Shomrim member called for help and other members responded immediately and forced them back. Police were called and responded in large numbers, but would not apprehend anyone, in fear on a riot.

B"H the other Shomrim members responded in time to prevent any serious injuries. This incident came just a few minutes after the first assault where a Lubavitcher was punched in the face.

We would like to warn all residents that there has been a major increase in muggings and random violent assaults at all hours of the day, some of it may be gang related, therefore we would like to warn everyone to be extremely vigilant and aware of your surroundings at all times. Don't venture out late unless absolutely necessary. If you see something say something, call Shomrim at (718) 774-3333 24/7.

    Sound like Israel
    "…but would not apprehend anyone, in fear on a riot."
    What a weak government/police department! Afraid of a riot! Hath not the government any teeth? No law efforcement=the criminals will get tougher and crime will escalate (G-d forbid). Let the Jews go out and take the law into their own hands and then threaten to riot! If the government lets the criminals go loose I will riot (or very strong protest). This is the USA? Where’s the pioneers? Hashgacha Pratis, we see in Ethics of the Fathers (Pirke Avos that we started to learn again) that if not for fear of the government people would swallow each other alive!

    Dear trouble: B"H
    There’s no mother justice, there’s no sword;
    there’s only a fearfull government.
    The spider burglar on the Upper East Side was arrested and released (he continued to commit
    crimes) 18 times! It’s good for the police department, locksmith and insurance business! Please wake up trouble!

    "don’t venture out late unless absolutely necessary"

    true, but look what happend in the day time also..

  • ITSTIME4ACTION

    A few jews should put on ski masks and go and attack them from behind, just like they did to us. If it happens to them, maybe they’ll realize that they should be scared and stop doing these things. We need to fight back! Obviously the PD aren’t going to help us out. Things are just getting way too out of hand around here.

    bye the way, i was on a city bus with a friend and for forty minutes straight we were being cursed with every name in the book.
    anti semitism is everywhere- we need moshiach.

    just out of curiosity…what do u think woukld happen if we formed groups and mugged a balck man? oh nooooo that woukld be considered a hate crime and the police would make sure to crack down and find this biased rascist traitor. but now….the police are terrified of the self-pitying blacks…because the blacks have no shame.

  • yakov

    im wit chavie

    u could be walking to 770 for shacrais and some black guy could just walk over and kick yer…

    why do u think ppl should feel safe here?

  • Ruchi

    Deaarest Moshe Rabushkin and Co….. Lets not forget y u were voted in not to worry about the Rabbinem elecetions. But to help make our community safe and that AINT HAPPING. So lets get the act toghter and do what ur soppose to………………

  • Shmuly

    And u think attacking random black people will help anything in the slightest? People use your heads not your testosterone. I have no idea what should be done about this but attacking random ppl will not help a thing.
    Now if someone knew that this is a gang issue, and we find out which gang, then im sure there would be a group of bochurim who would be more then happy to take care of the situation :p
    Or then again we can turn info in to the authorities. Like normal law abiding citizens.
    We are not the animals u seem to think all black ppl are. Use your heads.

  • Concerned

    The bear minimum is for CH residents to arm themselves with tasers and the like. in this the perps can be held for the shomrim and the like.

  • crownorion

    why cant we walk our own streets our own neighbourhood where this is the HQ for lubavitch , these shvartzes are not fromthis area and on drugs and crack gang related. shomrim should have more units , the police should also have a presence on kingston especially after shabbos and on jewish holidays.
