Police arrested a 25-year-old man Monday accused of knocking a Jewish man to the ground and assaulting him with a group of others.
Faisal Elezzi and several others allegedly surrounded Joseph Borgen on Broadway on Thursday, then punched, kicked and pepper sprayed him, police said. Borgen was also hit with crutches.
Elezzi was charged with assault as a hate crime, menacing as a hate crime and aggravated harassment as a hate crime. Police previously arrested Waseem Awawdeh on charges of assault as a hate crime, gang assault, menacing and criminal possession of a weapon.
The NYPD was still looking for several others in connection with the incident on Monday night.

Police previously arrested Waseem Awawdeh on charges of assault as a hate crime, gang assault, menacing and criminal possession of a weapon. & de Blasio insisted on releasing him immediately, and shall yet again insist on releasing him immediately.
After they arrested and released the first one, he got a hero’s welcome in queens, proclaiming he would do it again, thus proving, that a Jew in deBlasio’s new york can not get justice.
No worries he will be out in no time.
Only FOOLS will feel Blasio and the police are doing something.
Free Mets tickets and gift cards from NYC coming up.
Yup. Just another out of control white supremacist MAGA hat wearing insurrection racist. Oh wait…
What’s important to realize is this is happening in a city, a democracy, with 1.7 million or more Jewish citizens!!!!! Blaming Kaiser Wilhelm won’t do it. Nearly a 3rd of blacks and let’s guess 45% of Muslims are violent minded antisemites in NYC. It still doesn’t add up. Even if 20% of Jews are violent self haters which I doubt, most NY borough Jews are conservative. Are their votes not being counted? All I’m saying is wait until the numbers switch and it’s 1.2 or 1.3 million saracens and Hebrews are reduced to about that same number from hundreds of thousands fleeing. That’s when the Jews will have no protection and no say in NYC. If you can’t get hand in the city now, imagine in 10 or 20 years.
Some of the (year ’21) racist hate crimes against Jews in “little Palestine” section of Bay Ridge, Brookkyn, NY.
