A shocking incident unfolded on the second day of Shavuos outside a Stamford Hill shul, as a suspect attempted to forcibly steal two small children from their father in broad daylight. Surveillance footage from the Chabad House on Stamford Hill N16 captured the harrowing struggle between the suspect and the identifiably Jewish father, who miraculously managed to protect his children from the assailant.
The incident occurred at approximately 11:56 a.m. on Thursday morning. The suspect fled the scene after the failed attempted kidnapping. Witnesses told Stamford Hill Shomrim that the motivation behind the crime was likely antisemitism, although further details are still unknown.
Shomrim and local police are urging the victim and other witnesses to come forward and aid in the ongoing investigation.

Take a look at the video again:
It is not the father of the children, it is a young boy pushing [probably] his sibling/s in a pram.
That is heroic for the age of the boy, besides for the quick reaction of his, not going into shock getting frightened, that is brave.
May I suggest, that might be why the parents are not taking a public stance on this, but sorting it out quietly?
They may not want their young child having to start giving reports, and going down to court to identify savage terrorists with probably evil intentions…?
why are the cars driving the wrong way, thts disturbing
Why do racist Arabs wear masks?
The details of the story are wrong. Also the suspect was arrested on the site minutes later!!
