Queens Shmira posted the video on X of the man being arrested. They wrote that their “members swiftly responded to a hotline call involving a male individual groping and shoving a teenage woman near Main Street and Jewel Avenue.”

They kept a close eye on the man until police from the 107th precinct arrived. The suspect was placed under arrest for harassment of a minor amongst a list of charges.

Although it has not been confirmed, the victim may be a member of the frum community, since Queens Shmira was alerted. The assault took place near the intersection of Jewel Avenue and Main St, which is the heart of the thriving Queens Orthodox community. Dozens of religious stores, establishments, and shuls are located within several blocks of the location.

Although Queens DA Melinda Katz is tougher on crime than Alvin Bragg, and is a close friend of the Jewish community, it is not clear if the courts will release the suspect, thus allowing him to commit more attacks, or if he will remain in custody.

Should not have called the cops, just give that sewer rats a beating he will never forget, and make sure he would need a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
Remember the CHAPTZEMS of Williamsburg in the 1970s ,that is what we need.

Harrassment? He won’t spend 5 minutes in jail. What a joke! But then again, if illegal aliens can beat the c*** out of NYC’s finest, in Times Square, and immediately get released; then civilization in NY is in peril.

DA Katz provided me with reassurance that she will prosecute to the full extent allowed by law and will not let this slide.
