In another similar unprovoked attack earlier this month, two Jewish men were attacked and called 'dirty Jews' by two attackers in Brooklyn. Blake Zavadsky and his friend Ilan Kaganovich, both 21 years old, were at the Foot Locker in Bay Ridge shortly before 11 am on Sunday, December 26, when they were attacked by the two perpetrators. “They asked us what we were doing in their neighborhood,” Zavadsky said. “They called us ‘dirty Jews.'”
Zavadsky said that one of the men even punched him in the face for sporting an Israel Defense Forces sweatshirt. “The one who punched me said if I don’t take my sweatshirt off, he’s going to rock me,” Zavadsky said. “‘How can you support these dirty Jews?'” Zavadsky said the man allegedly told him. Zavadsky said that when he refused to take his hoodie off, one of the men doused him with iced coffee.
The NYPD had said that the incident was being investigated as a hate crime. Kaganovich claimed that the duo threatened him when he intervened. "I can’t believe this happened,” said Kaganovich. “We should be able to wear whatever we want to wear. Blake and I are Jewish — we should support Israel without it being a problem. My family moved from the Soviet Union for this reason — to be able to live a better life.”
