""They yelled at me, and the son said, 'I'll kill you,'" Mendy Asraf, a 20-year-old yeshiva student visiting from Israel, told The Post, noting the attackers appeared to be a father and son."
""F-k the Jews," Asraf said."
""I was really afraid. When he made his fingers the sign of a gun towards me, I was really afraid. I didn't know what he had in his pockets," Asraf said."
A group of eight boys and young men returned to the Chabad Lubavitch headquarters in Brooklyn after a Hanukkah celebration in Union Square when two attackers began hurling antisemitic slurs and threats. The pair confronted the group at the Franklin Avenue station, then escalated their harassment on a No. 3 train, with one grabbing a victim's coat collar and the other making a finger-gun gesture while shouting death threats. The victims exited at the next stop and went to a police precinct to report the assault. Passengers attempted to intervene, and victims feared for their lives. Police are investigating the incident as a hate crime.
