Avi Ben Hamo, a Jewish Israeli owner of a Tesla Cybertruck, witnessed a man vandalizing his vehicle with a swastika in Brooklyn. He condemned the act as antisemitism and called for the perpetrator to face hate crime charges. Ben Hamo expressed his fears for safety in Brooklyn and New York City, after confronting the vandal, who used threatening language and attempted to flee. This incident highlights ongoing concerns surrounding antisemitic acts and the need for legal accountability to ensure community safety.
"The police, the DA [district attorney], and the city should charge people like this and should prosecute people like this...otherwise, other people are not going to be safe and Jewish people are not going to be safe in the city."
"I saw this guy messing with my car, I don't know what was going on, and then I saw this very antisemitic swastika on the car...he told me very, very disgusting things."
As a Jew, I don't feel safe anymore in Brooklyn or New York."
He added that the actions of the assailant needed consequences, emphasizing that hate crimes should not be tolerated in society."
