Two Lakewood Residents Assaulted on Shabbos, One Hospitalized

Two Frum Lakewood residents were assaulted on Shabbos in Lakewood, TLS has learned.

At approximately 3:00 PM this afternoon, the residents were walking down Vermont Avenue, when a driver allegedly got out of his vehicle and assaulted the pair, injuring one badly.

The suspect then fled the scene.

Hatzolah responded and transported one of the victims to Jersey Shore University Center.

It’s unclear at this time if there was any prior interaction between the parties, or if it was a random assault.

Police are investigating.

UPDATE: Detectives this evening are reviewing camera footage of the incident. The suspect’s vehicle is possibly a dark blue sedan, police told TLS.

Anyone with information is asked to call the LPD.

Time will tell what actually happened but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was someone who was “radicalized” by groups like RUOC.

For now, it is such, but Jews in places like France already don’t feel this way. They can’t openly wear a yarmulke. UK isn’t far behind; there are no no-go cities and zones for Jews. We are unfortunately heading in this direction with all of the anti-Semitism, just see Twitter posts, there are tens of millions of people following blatant anti-semites in this country, it is frightening. I would like to try to buy a home there as I see where the wind is blowing it is just so expensive. Hashem Yarachem…
