The NYPD is looking into a possible hate crime in Crown Heights.
A group of young men assaulted a boy walking home from synagogue.
According to CBS2, it was captured by surveillance camera on Friday night, outside of 743 Eastern Parkway.
A group of teens walked up to a boy and two of them suddenly struck him. The boy fell to the ground and against a gate, forcing it open.
A young man saw the boy on the ground, reached over, and helped him to his feet.
Police said the boy was wearing traditional clothing, and a skull cap — a yarmulke. He was not seriously injured.
The NYPD is investigating the assault as a possible hate crime.

In your article I noticed the word “skull”. I did a Google definition on the word “skull”, a framework of bone and something else that I prefer not to write. Maybe The Yeshiva World can find a little better terminology. Thanking you in advance. Have a nice Yom Tov.
if they find the guy who helped him up, contact me via yeshiva world i would like to give him $100.00
