A frightening incident unfolded in Crown Heights on Shabbos afternoon when a masked man attempted to grab a young child from his father. At approximately 3:30 PM, a Crown Heights resident was walking with his two children when an unknown man crossed the street and suddenly attempted to take one of the children.
The father quickly reacted, confronting the man, who immediately released the child and retreated into a nearby building at 451 Kingston Avenue. The suspect’s motive remains unclear, but authorities are taking the incident seriously, particularly as it follows a recent string of antisemitic attacks in the area over the past two weeks.
Crown Heights Shomrim and the NYPD collaboratively investigated the incident and successfully identified the suspect, who was taken into custody by police late Motzei Shabbos.

Letitia James is doing all she can to keep all New Yorkers safe…………by continuously harassing the Trump family, along with Kathy Hochul’s encouragement. James cares so much about Jews safety. Letitia is very concerned.
Crazy! That’s me walking with my wife and 2 children on the other side of the street. I did not see or hear anything. Wish I would have heard something and been there to help. I only found out about what happened right across the street from me, when I read this story and watched the video. Hopefully this man is found and put away for a long time.
We need to get serious about restrting “chaptzem”!
But we need to do it smartly.
We cannot allow it to become a crowd of unruly people venting their frustrations on a hapless criminal, that will simply anger the perps community and create an “us vs them” dynamic, which will be extremely counterproductive, to say the least.
But we CAN make an organized snap-response to incidents like these, where by yelling “chaptzem”, the crowd gathers to defend and subdue the assailant/perps, and then hold them, without inflicting harm, for the police.
Insane….Chasdei Hashem the father reacted quickly and hit the perpetrator, hopefully he’s caught and locked up
Watch the video till the end and see the second man in shorts (possibly his partner) following him and speaking then walking away together to the same direction
Realmente havia mais uma pessoa, de short e casaco com capuz ( preto) que seguiu o delinquente e ambos mantiveram conversas.
It is safe to assume that latitia james ימח שמה וזכרונה shall prosecute & lock up this father for having violated the civil rights of this savage by attacking him to defend his child, just like iran executed someone last week for having murdered a savage in the process of self defense.
@Shmuli
Read the last phararaph of the article “Crown Hights Shomrim Investigated the case and successfully Identified the suspect who was taken Into custody by police late Motzei Shabbos”
I however don’t take responsibility that he is still in custody.
Taken into custody…for the 30 something time. The guy is 28, been arrested at least 30 times before (and released!?!?)
SOMEONE FIX THIS!!!!! Do we need to form a mob just to ensure these animals learn their lesson and don’t keep coming back?
