The incident took place at the corner of Brooklyn and Lefferts Avenues in front of the Beth Rivkah elementary school in Crown Heights after a school bus driver left the door to his vehicle open.
Surveillance video obtained by CrownHeights.info shows a group of approximately five juveniles boarding the bus holding empty cardboard boxes.
Flames can be seen erupting less than a minute later, first in the center of the bus and then at the front of the bus, with all of the youths involved running off the bus as the fire began to take hold. Two of the juveniles involved can be seen on the surveillance footage returning to the school bus and watching the flames burn before fleeing the scene.
Police said that they received a 911 call about the bus fire at 6:04 PM and fire crews responding to the scene found the bus engulfed in flames, with smoke pouring out of the school bus’s windows.
An 11 year old boy was arrested in connection with the incident and charged with arson as a hate crime and criminal mischief as a hate crime. Police said that they could give no further comment on the ongoing investigation.
Nu, so why did the driver leave the bus door open?
If this gets any national press, it will reach the desk of Obama y”sh, who will talk about this as a reverse hate crime, that the arsonists are victims and will be pardoned. That is the corrupt liberal thinking that has consumed the White House and all the criminals in it.
they seem to look like Trayvon Martin (Obama’s if I had a son) and to bat I think some of them are wearing hoodies. DA Thompson wont allow them to see jail he will have them visit a Holocaust museum and the African slavery exhibit and that’s all. I
Bus drivers everywhere routinely leave the doors unlocked – no idea why. My grandson was riding his bike by the bus as the flames took hold. B”H nobody was hurt or worse, although it would have been justice if the animals who did this got a bit singed for their trouble.
Leaving the door open is NOT the issue here!!!
#1 annd #3
No one should have their bus burnt as a hate crime just because they left the doors opened!
Jews in New York or anywhere in america for that matter should not be subjected to hate crimes regardless if their doors are opened or locked
and to #3 you are not any better than the people you are describing as “Monkeys” by using such word
Lav Achbere Ganef elu Chire..if the driver would of locked properly the bus those children would of gone to some where else to cause arson.
Sue the parents for the 20-30k the bus cost. Find the other four boys and include them too.
Why was only one of the mamzerim arrested ?! And where do kids this age learn to hate?? From their parents!
You can’t use the logic here of לאו עכברא גנב אלא חורא גנב, because a mice is supposed to steal whereas a human being isn’t!
they ought to punish the parents for allowing a minor to behave in such a manner.
Just sayyin – the parents in questions might be fine people and the kids learned to hate elsewhere… stop making blind judgments against innocent until proven otherwise individuals.
