A husband and wife driving through Brooklyn hopped out of their car to attack a group of Hasidic Jews, trying to rip off the victims’ masks and blaming them for the spread of coronavirus, police said Monday.
Mayor Bill de Blasio denounced the attack.
“This is obviously absolutely unacceptable in every way,†the mayor said Monday. “It’s something that expresses hate, but also creates danger, and that’s unacceptable and we’re not going to allow it here in this city.â€
Paulo Pinho, 35, and wife, Clelia Pinho, 46, jumped out of their vehicle at Bedford Avenue and Ross Street in Williamsburg about 8:35 p.m. Sunday to confront the victims, according to police.
