Three teenagers approached and harassed a group of Jewish children on Wednesday in the vicinity of 17th Avenue and 61st Street in Boro Park.
Surveillance footage shows the trio approaching the children before knocking off the yarmulka being worn by one of them.
Boro PArk Shomrim and the NYPD Hate Crimes Unit is investigating the incident and safety patrols have been stepped up in the area in case the perpetrators return to the area.

When I left Boro Park in 1976 at the age of 11, where I lived, 59th between 16th & 17th, was considered the end of Boro Park. I used to go to the library with great trepidation. When I left, I would look towards the 66th precinct where the Lt. was my friend and I would run across the street as if my life depended on it. I guess times have changed.
Why doesn’t this happen when I’m around!
There would be three paraplegic teenagers left over!
This is tame.

I don’t get how old these older Jewish men are just walking by not noticing or doing anything!?
