A few hours after demonstrators in their ongoing Black Lives Matter protest unsuccessfully attempted to disrupt a professional basketball game in Brooklyn attended by the British Prince William and his wife Kate, a black man with a large knife entered a synagogue/study hall a few miles away, yelling, "Kill the Jews!" The large building complex in Brooklyn's Crown Heights neighborhood is the headquarters of a large religious Jewish movement renowned for its outreach to Jews around the world and is open all day, all night for those who want to study and/or pray.
Carrying out his threat, he slashed a young Jewish student in the head and neck, severely wounding him. However, along with several other students, the victim managed to run out of the building and receive emergency first aid from his friends, who also contacted the police, who are stationed nearby.
As shown in the dramatic video embedded in the article from the New York Daily News, the police entered the building, confronted the attacker, and ordered him to put down his knife. Update: here is a YouTube version of the video:
He did so but later picked it up again. Again, the police demanded he put down the knife as the students begged the police not to kill him. But the attacker lunged towards the police, and they shot him; he later died. His family and neighbors claimed he was a nice family man who was also bipolar.
The victim is in critical condition and in an induced coma. Ironically, he just arrived in New York from Israel, where just a few weeks earlier Arabs with guns, axes, and butcher knives

Al Sharpton, as of this writing, is (uncharacteristically) silent about this latest incident, although some are already grumbling that the police really didn’t have to kill the attacker; they should have just tasered him, wounded him, or talked to him more nicely.
No Aisian-Americans or Pacific-Islander-Americans involved? Where’s the fairness in that?
What about St. Louis Croatians. They have Zemir Begic, a true innocent,who was beaten to death with a hammer by black youths, and an unidentified, innocent, Croatian woman who was beaten into unconsciousness by black youths?
The cop showed a lot more restraint than necessary. He jumped back when the guy lunged the first time.
Begic is Bosnian—as was the woman.
Cultural heritage?
boom ..boom... out go the lights
no jewish rioting.....ahahaha I LOVE IT!
Everyone remembers that Sharpton got a black racist mob all raced up and they proceeded to march to Crown Heights and kill a student from Israel? History is repeating itself.
“His family and neighbors claimed he was a nice family man who was also bipolar.”
Translation: An occasionally emotionally stable, but nonetheless loved relation whose antisocial behavior we rationalized extensively.
Did he have his hands up when he was shot?
He stopped breathing, that’s for sure.
Too bad Israeli police and Army have more stringent open fire orders than the NYPD! The more you shoot, the less troublemakers wandering the streets...
Wow! that was an unintentional and embarrassing mistake. Thanks for correcting it.
No rioting either when Sharpton caused several Jews to be killed ...
