Police say four teenagers in Crown Heights have been arrested on hate crime charges for throwing rocks at a Lubavitcher Yeshiva school-bus full of young children – originally reported HERE on YWN.

Police say the three girls and one boy yelled epithets as they broke windows on the bus in Crown Heights last month. The children in the bus weren’t hurt. The teens arrested are black; each is 14.

The case is part of a string of incidents that have recently stirred tensions between black and Jewish residents in Crown Heights. The flashpoints have included an assault on a black college student and an attack on an Orthodox Jewish teen.
