Orthodox Jewish man assaulted in Brooklyn; 4 suspects arrested

Eyewitness News
NEW YORK (WABC) -- Four people are under arrest Friday, accused of attacking an Orthodox Jewish man in Brooklyn.

The attack happened around 2:30 a.m. on 18th Avenue and East Second Street in Borough Park, and it is being investigated as a possible hate crime.

Members of the Orthodox community gathered outside the 66th Precinct, and they say they are thrilled about the arrests.

The victim was apparently heading home from work when he was surrounded by a group of Hispanic males in their 20s
