In the footage, the man is seen slurredly shouting phrases such as, “do you want to swear to Allah” and “go back to Israel” in the face of a Jewish man trying to ward-off the belligerent hooligan outside the house of worship.
At one point the shoe-less suspect appears to reach for the synagogue-goers throat, after-which the Jewish man wrestels the assailant to the ground, where a surrounding crowd pins him down.
According to local media, police arrested the suspect on charges of theft, criminal damage and assualt after purportedly stealing a child’s scooter outside the Adass Israel Synagogue and instigating the incident with several Jewish men who came out of the synagogue.
The incident was regarded as a criminal matter and not a hate crime.
Police released the man on bail several hours after his arrest, and he was set to be hear in court on January 19.
Yeah yeah big deal
Seventeen Jews standing around watching this jerk hitting another Yid and spewing filth doing nothing until he hits again and they wrestle him to the ground
If you ask me it’s a bloody embarrassment.
They shouldve decked this animal right away ans ensured he doesn’t walk straight again
Agree 100 percent with you.
Dear ‘Godol-Hador’ firstly change your title. Secondly Jews are merciful and they probably were being patient with this drunk. Most likely his rantings had nothing to do with religion, only jealousy.
#1 why is this not a hate crime
#2 in BP or Willy this person would be taken away on a stretcher
