Jew Beaten In Manhattan As Anti-Semitic Attacks Spike Across The Globe
by CrownHeights.info
“Brutally beaten in NYC for wearing a Kippa.”
A native of Lawrence, NY walking through Midtown Manhattan Thursday evening was attacked and beaten by a group of pro-Palestinian “protesters” in broad daylight, all over simply being Jewish.
Video from the beating shared widely on social media shows as the Jewish man lay curled on the ground, being attacked by multiple masked men.
The victim’s beating ended after some people intervened, and he was transported to the hospital for treatment.
The incident was immediately taken on by the NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force, who tweeted “The Hate Crime Task Force is investigating a gang assault of a Jewish man in Times Square that happened this evening. If you have any information on any of the participants, DM us or call @NYPDTips 1-800-577-TIPS. We will post more information as it becomes available.”
Video from another assault in Midtown Manhattan shows the same group attacking others, before being forcibly dispersed by the NYPD. IN that assault, which included fireworks, a bystander was burned, sending her and two police officers to the hospital. During the ensuing melee, 26 people were arrested.
