A shocking event unfolded in Brooklyn, where police are actively seeking a suspect involved in an anti-Semitic hate crime that left a man wounded. This incident occurred on Tuesday afternoon, specifically around 4:10 p.m. at the intersection of Kingston Avenue and Lincoln Place.
The victim, a 35-year-old male, was simply walking when he was confronted by the assailant. Authorities reported that prior to the attack, the suspect allegedly made various anti-Semitic remarks before plunging a knife into the victim’s chest before he fled the scene.
