A roving band of teen robbers slugged three Orthodox Jewish men in the face in Brooklyn early Monday and tried to rob them, sparking an NYPD hate crime probe, authorities said. The three robbers first walked up to a 71-year-old man on Ross St. near Bedford Ave. in Williamsburg and punched him in the fact about 5 a.m. They checked his pockets, but found nothing to steal and took off. The man was treated at Bellevue Hospital.

Everything’s a Hate Crime.
Well why not? Have they ever charged anyone with a Love Crime?
“Teens” Assaulted three men, but somehow no description of the “teens” is available.
Is it even necessary to look?
“... on Ross St. near Bedford Ave. in Williamsburg and punched him in the fact about 5 a.m...”
~~~
If getting punched in the fact is a hate crime, then the MSM would need a tribunal
In this case,if these guys were injured for no good reason (which surely seems to be the case) the one(s) responsible should go to the slammer for periods determined by the extent of the injuries inflicted and the criminal history of the one(s) responsible.
Perps: a generic “teen robbers”
Vics: a detailed “Orthodox Jewish men”
Guess they couldn’t get any more specific details on the perps, otherwise they would have surely provided that information.
Were the yoots wearing MAGA hats?
Meanwhile in Lakewood NJ 56 cars had the tires punctured over the weekend. Lakewood has become largely populated by Orthodox Jews over the yrs. All the damaged vehicles belonged to Jews.
"Homeboys".

Must be them thar white supremists
You can still punch white people without it being a hate crime
Everyone else - not so much.
Yup. Teens, huh?
The victims are 71, 68 and 65 years old. The teens were clearly selective, and not just in going after Jews.
Time for some undercover vigilantes in Hasidic garments. Thug cowards picking on older, non threatening orthodox men.
50 years ago I would have said someone aged 71 was elderly but my perspective has changed.
I wish a 71, 68 or 65 year old was exercising their 2nd Amendment at the time.
Those darn teens again!
I believe you and the story but do you have a source, please?
Some book I read (can’t remember) said “I went out every morning to get into my car parked on the NY street. Every day I passed piles of tiny blue pieces of glass. I asked someone finally and they said these were the broken safety glass from car breakins—most stolen, others for valuable and radios. New cars broken into every day.
So I realized all the New Yorkers were used to this every day and just resignedly put in the insurance claim and shrugged it off. Daily crime.”

"Three what?"
