Crown Heights, Brooklyn, NY - Disturbing footage has been released of a Chassidic Jewish man being assaulted last week by a group of black teens who threw a chair at him and punched him in the head as he walked on Lincoln Place near Albany Avenue in Crown Heights.
The assault of a Chassidic Jewish man by a group of 7 black teens was recorded on surveillance footage which was recently released.
I found disturbing footage of chair throwing & assault on Chassidic Jew Tue on Albany & Lincoln. Victim is uncomfortable reporting due to the discovery reform (attacker may know his identity). Same group assaulted someone later that night on Union Kingston. @NYPD77Pct @NYPD71Pct pic.twitter.com/f5jEAL5SkR— Yaacov Behrman (@ChabadLubavitch) December 31, 2019
Community activist Yaakov Behrman posted the disturbing video to Twitter, but wrote that the victim does not want to come forward due to his fear of the discovery reform, which may lead to the attacker finding out his identity.
In the video, the group of teens is seen running after the Jewish man, hitting him in the head with a chair. They are then seen chasing him down the block, and one can be seen punching the man in the head.
