Man Hits Woman In The Face On NYC Subway Because She Was Jewish

A man at a New York City subway station reportedly approached a woman Saturday night on the platform and hit her in the face, because “you are Jewish.”

Police say the suspect randomly approached the 29-year-old victim inside the 42nd Street and Lexington Avenue subway station 7-train passageway around 11:30 p.m. That’s when he allegedly struck her.

The woman, stunned by the attack, asked the stranger why he struck her, to which the suspect allegedly said, “You are Jewish.”

Police say the man then ran away and remains on the loose.

The NYPD released images of the man they are seeking in hopes that someone will be able to identify him.

The woman sustained minor injuries.

The NYPD Hate Crimes Unit is investigating the assault.

No other information on the attack was released, but it occurred while tensions are high in the U.S. amid the Israel-Hamas war .

On Oct. 9 approximately 1,400 people were killed in the initial terrorist strikes against Israel , with thousands more wounded and about 200 taken hostage.

Since then, more than 3,400 people have been killed in retaliatory airstrikes on Gaza, with some 12,000 injured and more than 1 million Gazans displaced.
