NYPD investigates 2 attacks on Jewish men, on the subway and in Crown Heights

JL;DR SUMMARY The NYPD is currently investigating two incidents involving attacks on Jewish men in Brooklyn, occurring within 24 hours during Hanukkah.

But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
