HIKIND THANKS NYPD FOR NONSTOP WORK ON SATURDAY MORNING ATTACKS IN BOROUGH PARK

Two suspects in early Saturday morning’s egg throwing attacks in Borough Park, accompanied by their attorneys, turned themselves into the 7^th police precinct in Manhattan today. Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) praised the NYPD for working to resolve the cases and reiterated the importance of video surveillance cameras as one of the most effective tools for law enforcement’s ability to solve and prevent crimes.

“Our community is grateful to the NYPD for their nonstop work in finding the perpetrators of Saturday morning’s attacks. I spoke with the victims and they are suffering from anxiety and trauma over these horrible incidents. Surveillance video of the suspects was obtained, which showcases once again how important cameras are for preventing and solving crimes. Anyone contemplating committing such acts should know: we will get you.”

Surveillance video obtained by the NYPD and the Boro Park Shomrim showed that on Saturday morning, November 14, at around 2 a.m., a few male suspects on 13^th Avenue threw eggs and taunted two male victims. According to one of the victims, the suspects shouted, “you Jewish guys we’ll shoot you.” The suspects fled in their car, according to the victim. Another incident took place a few minutes prior.
