The New York Police Department's Hate Crime Task Force is investigating an assault on a Long Island rabbi by an attacker who allegedly made anti-Semitic remarks and referenced Nazis, police said Saturday.
The 32-year-old victim was punched in the head and kicked in the legs around 3 p.m. Friday in Brooklyn, according to an NYPD statement.
The incident comes as the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) said reports of assaults, vandalism and harassment targeting Jewish communities and individuals across the country was the highest on record in 2021.
