At least two incidents have been reported over the weekend involving unprovoked attacks on Jews in Williamsburg.
The first incident, caught on film involved a Chassidic couple walking down the street on Friday night, in the area of Marcy Ave. and Stockton St.
As they walk, minding their own business, an unidentified individual runs up behind them and knocks off the man’s Streimel. He then turns and runs away, along with another individual who stood back to watch the attack unfold.
A second incident was also reported, in which another two men had their Streimels knocked off their heads by two suspects.
The NYPD is investigating these incidents as possible hate crimes.
