Victim of anti-Semitic dog poop attack in New York City predicts attacker will get a slap on the wrist if caught

A Jewish man who had a bag of dog feces thrown in his face by a bicycle-riding fanatic predicted that if his attacker was eventually arrested, he would not spend a single day in prison.

“Realistically, I know that if the guy gets caught, he’s not going to go to jail or face a major punishment,” the 32-year-old Hasidic father of four told the Washington Post, railing against what he sees as a lenient crime policy that gives the Big Apple’s criminals more freedom.

“Law enforcement is the biggest problem. People are not afraid,” he said of a recent wave of hate attacks on Jewish victims.

“The point is, if the city council took this seriously or if the justice system was a little stronger, the chances of something like this happening would be less.”

The victim, who wished to remain anonymous out of fear, had just left work in Soho on June 4 when a man on a bicycle allegedly shouted “Fuck you, Jew”, then threw the bag at his head and sped off.

“He threw a bag right at me,” the victim said in a telephone interview. “It basically grazed the side of my face and flew into my car.”

The disgusting incident shocked the New York native.

“I don’t feel comfortable leaving the office late,” he said.

It was the second time he had been attacked because of his Jewish background, after being beaten about 12 years ago, he added.

“It was a month or two after my wedding,” he recalled, adding that he was on his honeymoon in Hollywood, California at the time.

“We were just walking… and this guy came up to us,” he said. “I had a coffee in my hand. He hit my coffee and hit me.”

The June 4 incident came as the number of anti-Semitic attacks skyrocketed across the Big Apple in the wake of the war between Israel and Hamas.

In May, anti-Jewish hate crimes increased 150% compared to the same month in 2023, according to NYPD data.

“I never thought I would ever become part of a statistic,” said the victim.

Since October 7, his Jewish colleagues have refused to use the train for fear of becoming victims.

But he is not ready to change his routine.

“Someone told me I should wear a hat and cover my kippah. I will never do that.”

His attacker was still at large on Wednesday.
