The NYPD is investigating a possible hate crime in Flatbush on Monday evening.
The Flatbush Scoop reports that that a group of teens allegedly threw eggs at a Jewish teen in the vicinity of Avenue M and East 18th Street (near bay Avenue) on Monday afternoon. The group reportedly said “Free Palestine”, made other threats and egged the boy.
Flatbush Shomrim responded along with the NYPD, but the group had fled the scene.
The NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating the incident.
NYC Councilman Kalman Yeger tweeted that this incident happened just one block away from a previous hate crime.
THIS STORY WAS FIRST PUBLISHED ON THE FLATBUSH SCOOP STATUS
This afternoon, in the heart of an Orthodox neighborhood, 3 teenagers (not yeshiva students) happened upon an Orthodox teenager (yeshiva student), yelled "Free Palestine" and pummeled him with eggs.

While I appreciate that @NYPDHateCrimes and @NYPD70Pct are taking this seriously, the environment in which this incident happens is one where criminals know there are no consequences for crime in New York. Particularly hate crimes, and particularly against Jews.

With the price of eggs these days, these boys must mean business
The exact same thing and worse about a year and a half ago (the kids were rescued by a Muslim Uber driver)
The three thugs and terrorists (Danial Shaukat, Ashan Azad and Haider Anjam) only got a few years of parole. I used to think that hate crimes were from the few violent crimes liberals took seriously. Now I realize that when it is directed against Jews even hate crimes aren’t an issue by liberals.
(In fairness the Brooklyn DA did ask for jail time. It was the judges decision to ignore their recommendation)
No Get-r-dun, your tax dollars paid for those eggs (they mama’s SNAP benefits.)
Ahh judge I stand corrected!
I’ve said it before it’s time that our young men new how to defend themselves. And in a fight take out the one with biggest mouth first. Rest will run. I and friends from the Bronx in 60’z learnt hard way. But attacks stopped.
eggs were likely stolen, anyway Eric Gonzalez the Brooklyn DA released 300 criminals last month AND his office main dedication in recent months is to having the illegals who came from south of the border NOT get prosecuted.
@ Kollel Faker
Get real man, even an authentic black belt would have very little chance against 3 attackers, and your average person “trained” in self-defense would generally not be able to handle 2. Cut your garbage, curb your ego, save your life buddy.
