Brooklyn Man Suspected Of Attacking Jew In 'Knockout' Game Charged With Hate Crime

Police have been investigating reports of a frightening new fad in Brooklyn recently — a "game" called knockout in which a group of people find and assault unsuspecting Jews.
The crimes can carry charges more serious than assault. Amrit Marajh, 28, was charged with a hate crime on Sunday for allegedly punching a 24-year-old Orthodox Jewish man Friday morning, ABC News reports.
The victim reportedly told police that he heard his attackers daring each other to punch him and talking about the knockout game, according to ABC.
The "game" is very dangerous and violent and involves attempting to knock a person out with a single punch.
Several attacks have taken place in Brooklyn since September, NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly told CBS News. One surveillance tape shows a 19-year-old Jewish man thrown to the ground after a group of teenagers hit him.
NYPD's Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating the attacks. Police are also stepping up patrols in areas where attacks have been reported, according to ABC.
The trend isn't exclusive to Brooklyn, and cases have been reported in at least six states. Three people have died so far in attacks linked to the "game."

Thanks blam — the only reason the drive-bys are writing about this is, the perps are three latinos and an Indian (from India).
Take a leaf from the rira.
Start with the knees.
“The victim reportedly told police that he heard his attackers daring each other to punch him and talking about the knockout game, according to ABC.”
If it wasn’t NY, the article would have read: “The intended victim reportedly told police that he heard his attackers daring to punch him and talking about the knockout game. When they tried, he pulled his weapon and shot six two legged varmints dead in self defense. He stated he would have shot more but ran out of varmints and bullets.”
About time it’s finally called the hate crime that it is.
Muslims getting into the game.
Camel jockeys bleed out just like holders folks.
I guess they know better than pull this crap in Conceal Carry parts of the Good Ol USA. What be a great way to try out double tap. Betcha only one of the “group” will be willing to meet their maker.
and his buddies are Hispanic.
Not an Obama kid in sight.
this “game” has been going on for years, but NOW it’s being covered in the media. If only the attacks would start happening right outside of the New York Times HQ, instead of to Orthodox old men, women, and children in Brooklyn.
one of the rules seems to be, the victim is not to be given a chance to even see it coming.
Only chance the victim has, is to not be knocked senseless enough to react after the initial hit.
Black or whatever...these feral jungle apes need to be put down.
But does look like he could be a member of ROP
actually, I do believe it was 3 Hispanics and an Indian.
That’s why you are actually hearing about it from places like CBS.
*Crickets* if the perps looked like they could be Obamas sons

You should post that on all of the threads related to this social trend!

Ahh, yes, to the mainstream media a “New” fad...
