Video footage appeared to show the driver repeatedly ramming the doors to the main synagogue before police arrested him.
New York City Police Department officers arrested a man who repeatedly rammed a car into an entrance to Chabad world headquarters in Brooklyn on Wednesday night. No injuries were reported.
The NYPD told JNs that officers responded at around 8:45 p.m. to 770 Eastern Parkway, where they saw a gray Honda sedan which “collided into entrance doors at the bottom of a sloped driveway in front of 770 Eastern Parkway.”
“The operator of the vehicle was taken into custody and the investigation remains ongoing,” NYPD said. The department told JNS that its hate crimes team wasn’t yet on the scene.
