According to reports, a black male entered Rabbi Rottenburg’s Shul with his face covered by a scarf, and pulled out a machete. He pulled off the cover and stabbed at least 4 people. One of the victims was stabbed in the chest.
According to reports, 15 victims were transported to the hospital, but 5 were ultimately hospitalized.
The perpetrator then ran out and escaped in a Nissan Sentra. His plates (HPT 5747) were spotted before he left.
Police initially tracked the vehicle to an address located in Greewood Lake. Police have also tracked down the father of the suspect and interviewed him.
Police ultimately tracked down the vehicle and stopped it at W 177 Street and 7 Avenue in Harlem.
I am certainly pleased that the police quickly arrested him.
I can’t follow the news because commercials are jumping in my face. Quite annoying!
Care to check a map before posting the alleged location of the arrest? W 177 St ends at Amsterdam Ave (roughly 10th Ave) in Washington Heights. 7th Ave doesn’t go up that far.
I never dreamt the day will come where I’m retaining a lawyer to handle my gun permit application, sadly it has to be !
