An eight-year-old Jewish boy was ‘viciously beaten’ as he walked home from school on Monday in London’s Orthodox-Jewish populated Stamford Hill neighborhood.
London Shomrim documented the ‘shocking incident’ in a series of posts to it’s twitter account.
The boy was walking on Dunsmure Road when a man described as ‘white, and wearing gloves’ attacked him from behind, pushed him to the wall and beat him severely.
Fortunately, two people came to his rescue and chased away the attacker.
Shomrim reports the child then ran home and up all the stairs before collapsing. He then crying, traumatized and unable to talk for the next 4.5 hours.
The unprovoked attack left the child with swelling and marks near his chest, neck, shoulder and face, for which he was later hospitalized.
Shaye Gluck from Stamford Hill Shomrim said: “This was a vicious attack on a young boy in broad daylight on a very busy residential street.
“This attack has affected this young boy’s life severely. He keeps on having flashbacks and goes into shock mode where he loses his speech again.
“It is unacceptable that children can no longer walk home from school safely. Shomrim volunteers have increased patrols in the local area and are scouring through hours of CCTV.”
Shomrim added they are “doing all we can to support this young boy and his family, and to assist with the investigation.”
The Metropolitan Police said they were aware of the incident and that an allegation of common assault had been made.

I wonder if it was racist, or just randomly wreaking havoc? I think they should assume it was racist.
“The Metropolitan Police said they were aware of the incident and that an allegation of common assault had been made.”
Bridiots in The Metropolitan Police just can’t dear to call it a hate crime, since it involved a Jew!!!
To all British antisemitism, including those in Metropolitan Police who released that statement, Your beloved Muslim brothers will take great care off you when they will take over your rotten liberal paradise.
I just hope that Yidden will get out of there before it’s too late.
A message to all Yidden living in GB – Gross Britain: Leave now. Come to America where there is a strong Yiddish community wherever…….well almost wherever you go. We have everything you need here except lots of welfare.
If you’re looking for welfare then move to the 2 biggest welfare states, New York or New Jersey or move to Israel where you can take the money and fight the Zionists. England has gone to the dogs and mooslim pigs.
This drugcommish in LA is just that: high on opium, hashish or something real potent!
The goon must be placed in stocks & pillory for ever, and have the keys thrown out.
This is truly horrific.
In my humble opinion, however, Yidden living outside of Eretz Yisroel need to wake up!!
There is antisemetism everywhere around the world and it won’t be getting better anytime soon. The exact opposite I’m afraid. Hashem is using all ways necessary to push His children out of Galus and send them to Eretz Yisroel.
What with all the “Natural Disasters” , terrorism and antisemetism Yidden have to start thinking bigger.
In 1939 the safest place for a Jew was Germany.
Nobody in their wildest dreams thought that the Holocaust could happen.
Believe me when I tell you that a Goy is a Goy.
The American Goyim aren’t any better than the German Goyim.
It’s time to leave the lands of Tumah and come to Eretz Hakodesh where Hashem is waiting for ALL His children.
I write this out of concern for my fellow Yidden.
Please come to Eretz Yisrael before it’s too late…
No reason to assume its anti semitic! The police in Britain in my experience aren’t out to get Jews and are usually correct about whether something is anti semitic or not. Even Shomrim hasn’t made allegations of a racist motive in the quotes above. Many Jews have a tendency to assume that things like this are always anti semitic. Just look at some of the comments above, who know no details of what happened and yet are prepared to make a shvua chamura that it was anti semitic.
Obviously that isn’t rational. Plenty of goyim are beaten up for no reason, statistically many of the assaults on Jews will be like this, the victim just happened to be a Jew.
