The following is via CHI:

A Jewish man was assaulted early this morning while on his way to Shul in Crown Heights. The assailant slapped a cell phone out of the victims� hands, then punched him in the face while yelling �I am tired of Jews.�

The incident occurred at around 6:00am near the corner of Albany Avenue and Lefferts Avenue. The victim, a 49-year-old Jewish man, was on his way to Shul when he was accosted by a man who slapped a cell phone out of his hands then punched the victim in the face while shouting �I am tired of Jews.�

Cellphone video from the scene show police holding a man, presumably the assailant, in handcuffs who is readily admitting that he slapped the phone out of the victims� hands �because he is tired of all the Jews.�

After calling for help police responded to the scene and managed to apprehend the attacked, who is described as a 46-year-old Hispanic man, who police say is a resident of the area.

Hatzalah treated the victim, who suffered a bloodied nose, at the scene. He B�H did not require further medical attention.

This incident is being treated by the police as a possible bias incident.
