GREENFIELD PARK, NY — New York State Police are investigating what appears to be an antisemitic attack after five Jewish women riding bicycles on Weiner Road in Greenfield Park were targeted with a water cannon filled with manure on Thursday.
According to exclusive information obtained by YWN, the suspect sprayed manure at the group from a passing vehicle, striking two of the women.
One victim was hit in the face and ear with such force that she was knocked off her bicycle and onto the ground. Another woman was struck in the back.
Sources tell YWN that the suspects shouted expletives and antisemitic remarks at the women both before and after the attack.
New York State Police responded to the scene and have launched an investigation. Police are looking at camera footage, and are looking for a white vehicle which was involved.

I would hope the police department is monitoring the various Sullivan County etc Facebook hate groups where I’m sure they’ll get an idea how this happened.
Jewish women are not allowed to ride bicycles.
SharonPU,
Don’t you dare post what anyone can or can’t do, ignoramus! Your senseless comments and insults ensure that you will be buried alive in manure, hopefully very soon!

In German communities it was very common for Orthodox women to ride bikes, and many of those who made it out of Europe continued this in cities where traffic conditions and terrain permitted. As a fact, it can still (or until very recently) be seen in European cities, such as Antwerp.
GH Don’t curse anyone!!
Sharon PU Actually women can ride bikes. The issue is the lack of tznius when skirts fly up and the fact that trouser wearing IS actually forbidden.
