An antisemitic thug allegedly yelled “Free Palestine” and stabbed a Jewish man in a hateful attack near the Chabad Headquarters in Crown Heights on Saturday morning, according to eyewitnesses.The suspect allegedly approached Yechiel Dabrowskin around 2 a.m. near the Eastern Parkway and Kingston Avenue and shouted “Free Palestine” and “Do you want to die?” before knifing the victim, according to Yaacov Behrman, a spokesperson for Chabad-Lubavitch.“It’s very, very painful,” Dabrowskin told Kan 11 News in Israel. “I had internal bleeding but thank God I had a miracle.”He said he was part of a group that sat down to a peaceful dinner near the rebbe’s synagogue late Friday before the trouble broke out.“At 2 a.m. they were saying that there was a person outside who was threatening children and teenagers,” Dabrowskin said. “I heard him say, ‘Free Palestine,’ ‘You want to die?’ [and] I asked him to leave.“When you look at the footage you can see that me and a friend of mine were trying to distance him from us,” he continued. “All of a sudden he pulled out a knife.“The knife went very close to my heart,” Dabrowskin added. “We all tackled him and we all called the police.”Dabrowskin and his attacker, identified by police as 22-year-old Vincent Sumpter of Brooklyn, allegedly exchanged words before the shocking attack, Behrman wrote on X.Yechiel Dabrowskin
According to the Times of Israel, a group of young men chased down the alleged assailant and held him until police arrived. Shockingly, given that this is New York City, these fine young men were not arrested instead.
Yaacov Behrman tweeted that during Shabbat, the young male attacker asked the man: “Do you want to die?” He then stabbed him.The victim was taken to the hospital and is expected to make a full recovery, Behrman said.A video of the incident posted online showed the assailant approaching a group of young Jewish men in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn and then stabbing one of them. The victim was seen looking down, apparently at his injuries, but remained standing.Behrman said other community members chased the attacker and pinned him down until police arrived and arrested him.“This is an extremely serious incident,” Behrman said. “The victim could have been killed. This act of hateful violence highlights the dangerous impact of anti-Semitic incitement and hate propagated by some local politicians and leaders in New York and across the United States.”According to the Yeshiva World News website, the victim was a member of the Lubavitch community and the assailant was a black man in his early 20s.It reported that the incident is being investigated by New York police as a hate crime.
