BROOKLYN – The NYPD is searching for a man aged 55 to 65 who assaulted an Orthodox Jewish woman at the Kings Highway and East 16th Street subway station in Brooklyn. The suspect, described as medium build and carrying a cane, reportedly shouted antisemitic slurs before striking the woman’s hand with his cane as she recorded the incident on video.

The attack occurred shortly before 1 p.m. on Thursday and is being investigated by the NYPD Hate Crime Task Force. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact NYPD Crimestoppers.

Not a single guy at the train station to defend an innocent woman from an aggressor? Yeah, I know of Daniel Penny’s persecutional prosecution, but no one is taking about chocking the guy out. How come no one ripped his weapon (cane) out and accidentally hit his knee cap, then catched the next train, while the woman victim was waiting 20 minutes for the police to come, holding the cane next to the assailant lying on the floor? Not your business? It could be your mother, sister, wife or daughter. Every Jew is supposed to be every other Jew’s business.
Age 55-65 is considered “elderly”?
I would’ve knocked him down cane or no cane
If the police have sufficient grounds to arrest & charge him with a felony, then I suggest getting several wanted posters with his picture & a description of the time & place of the crime, be posted in the area. Most likely there will be people who know him & will come forward (especially with a small [like $1,000] reward).
With this photo and cane, he won’t go far.
Many ideologies he could stem from.
The idea the elderly hold these violent ideations are shocking.
That he chose a woman to beat up says a lot
A particular group tends to beat on the old and the female and the children.
Letitia James is keeping all of us safe.
Nazi
Look at this. We have a Nazi living right under our nose somewhere in our neighborhood. If and when they find this POS, find out what his name was prior to being changed.
Take away his cane weapon.
Hochul foisted upon us congestion pricing thievery, in order to pressure us to take public transit. Our subway system is NOT safe. It is dangerous for an elderly Frum Yid to take the trains. Hochul claimed all the money they rip-off from the congestion pricing scam was going to go into improving our subway system and make it safe. Lies lies and more damn lies.
Most likely a Slav, but can be Turkic/Balkan type. He’ll be arrested soon enough. With such a clear photo and a cane, he’ll be reported/recognized in good time.
hope they find him and give him good fine.
Unfortunately, most of yidden in Brooklyn would be too timid to come to her help. Not saying all, though.
So he said, so he did
Big deal. Maybe he is in the early stages of dementia and has outburst issues.
Who cares
I’ll take a guess, he is Muslim
