The police were investigating the attack in Crown Heights, where hundreds of pro-Israel demonstrators surrounded a woman and hurled slurs at her.

New York police are investigating the attack of a Brooklyn woman harassed last week by a pro-Israeli group of men in an encounter captured on multiple videos, which has incited demonstrations and condemnation from religious groups.

A New York City woman says she feared for her life as she was chased, kicked and pelted with objects by a mob of men who mistook her as a participant in a protest against Israel’s far-right security minister.
