A group of young Jewish girls were on their way to a rehearsal on Monday evening when ‘around a dozen glass bottles and plates’ were allegedly thrown at them by a man on a balcony at Woodberry Down Estate.

The girl was badly injured and rushed to Royal London Hospital by Hatzola Ambulance volunteers.

‘The sheer volume of glass scattered across the area resembles the aftermath of a riot.

‘The force and distance of the thrown glass bottles reveal the deliberate and violent nature of this act.

‘These young children were targeted simply for their visibly Jewish identity.’

"Organized neighborhood watches" don't wear gear deliberately designed to look like real police, and if they do, they deserve to be broken up.

If course, so do the actual cops.
