Vandals pelt Kensington
temple with eggs: NYPD
BY BEN VERDE
The Police Department’s
Hate Crime Task Force is investigating
an allegedly anti-
Semitic egging spree in Kensington
this weekend.
In one incident, a knave
hurled an egg into the open
door of a synagogue near Dahill
and Cortelyou roads at
around 6:17 pm, striking the
wall of the house of worship
— but missing the worshipers,
cops said.
Ten minutes earlier, a hooligan
had tossed an egg at a
woman on 38th Street near
15th Avenue — barely missing
the unsuspecting woman.
And on Sunday, some
goons pelted a 50-year-old
woman in the back with eggs
on the same stretch of 38th
street at around 4:15 pm, according
to police — who confi
rmed that both victims
were Jewish, and are treating
all three incidents as connected.
The egg attacks come amid
a signifi cant surge of hate
crimes in New York over the
past year, with anti-semitic
incidents seeing the biggest
spike.
Between January and
early October, the Police Department
LIGHTNINGTHIEFMUSICAL.COM @LIGHTNINGTHIEFMUSICAL
COURIER LIFE, N 6 OVEMBER 15-21, 2019
recorded 323 hate
crimes — marking a 33-percent
increase over the same
time frame the year before.
Meanwhile, anti-semitic
crimes have risen 63-percent,
according to authorities.
Anyone with information
in regard to the identity
of this male is asked to
call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers

(8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-
