‘I’ll kill you’: NYPD investigating attack on Hasidic Jews on subway |
NEW YORK — The NYPD said Tuesday that officers were investigating an attack on Hasidic Jews on a New York City subway car in the US, in an incident captured on video.
In the footage from Monday, which has circulated on social media, two men approach a group of Hasidic men and begin hurling insults at them.
One of the Jewish men then appears to step in between the two aggressors and the other Jewish men, at which point the assailants turn on him and threaten to “teach [him] a lesson,” before one grabs him by the neck.
“The fuck you doing?” the attacker can be heard demanding of the Jewish man as he pushes him backwards. “I’ll kill you!”
“I’ll kill one of [you],” the attacker says again, before letting go of the man’s neck.
Several people can be heard shouting in the background for the men to “chill” and “calm down,” but nobody takes any other steps to stop them.

Such acts of hatred must be unequivocally condemned, and those responsible must be held accountable. pic.twitter.com/FB9vz3MZcO
