According to the police report, the incident happened near 90th and Third Avenue on Friday, September 13 at about 4:05 a.m., when two male suspects approached a 27-year-old man from behind.
“One of the individuals snatched the victim’s necklace, causing a laceration to the neck, and made an anti-Semitic comment,” according to the police report.
The suspects fled by foot, traveling north on Third Avenue.
The victim sustained minor injuries but refused medical attention. The incident is being investigated as a hate crime.
Police describe the suspects as men between the approximate ages of 18 and 25: one with a light complexion, last seen wearing a green hooded sweatshirt and tan pants; the other with a medium complexion, last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and black-and-red shorts.
Anyone with relevant information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).

Let’s not wait for God’s judgment.
I’d hate to be the guy in charge of assigning complexions.
Judging from their incongruous clothes I’d say they are new immigrants – Probably from Israel.
I thought it was the Amish committing all the crimes!
