NYC masked man attempts to rip Jewish boy out of his father's arms in broad daylight

A shocking video depicts a masked assailant attempting to abduct a six-year-old Hassidic Jewish boy in broad daylight as he walked with his father. Despite the surprise attack, the father managed to pull his son back, punching the suspect who then fled without further violence.

This incident is part of a troubling pattern in Crown Heights, according to Chabad PR representative Yaacov Behrman, who noted several violent attacks over the past weeks within the community.

In recent weeks, Crown Heights has seen a spate of violent incidents, leaving community members feeling uneasy and raising questions about safety for families walking in broad daylight in the neighborhood.

The investigation into the attempted kidnapping is being led by the 71st precinct, and while no arrests have been made, the attacker's identity and motivations remain unclear.
