At approximately 5:30 PM today, an Orthodox Jewish delivery man was in his truck on Brooklyn Avenue near Prospect Place.

As the truck stopped in traffic, he was approached by a group of African American youths, who hurled a stone at the driver side window, COLlive reports. The stone broke the window, and struck the man in the eye, and cutting his face.

The victim opted to not go to the hospital, but he filed a police report.

A police official told COLlive.com that the NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force will be investigating the incident as a possible bias crime.

As previously reported on VIN, Rabbi Avraham Gopin was hospitalized with a broken nose, missing teeth, stitches on his head and lacerations on his body, after getting brutally attacked with a brick Tuesday morning.

it is time for Shomrim to organize patrol and beat the $h!t out of these non white trash! Only when they get their bones broken badly will their friends decide it is not worth it to attack a Jew…..

if its the 70s all over lets treat it that way , they dont have parents that could report to them what happened in their days when a punk like this got caught so its time to restart the engine , waiting for the politicians and NYPD or else to handle it expect to be hit hard b4 that happens and an incompetent Mayor that courted the Jewish votes but totally forgot about protecting them and his close Jewish Liaisons are worth for photo ops only .

Mr. Gov roll in the national guards .
time to get the Guardian Angles back on the streets here local . bring them home from overseas we need ur help.

Where is the shomrim? It’s time for organized full time patrols
Or the chaptesm tactics should be put back into place and an app should be developed where one can press and the nearest people should rush over
Shabbos will need to have patrols roving the neighborhoods the hours people are out
Just saying we need to do for ourselves and not depend on the Pd as it’s impossible for them to be everywhere b4 a crime otherwise it wouldn’t have occurred

there should be an outcry and raise our voices in front of city hall and get some attention , u bet ull see some action following……
i dont mean placing cops for 2 days at each corner pretending to secure the community and then disappear in the dark of night like nothing was.

We are too passive. No outrage, no marches, no sit ins. We as Jews have zero seichel. Lock and load Yidden.
