New York City saw a two and half percent increase in antisemitic attacks in 2015. NYPD’s top cop Police Commissioner William Bratton said.
“We had 125 antisemitic incidents in 2015, vs 122 from 2014. It’s a 2.5% increase,” Bratton told Jewish community leaders last week Wednesday.
“We’re always distributed with anti Semitic incidents,” Bratton added.
“I think we actually have in NYC the best unit that was created specifically to deal with hate crimes. We investigate every little of those incidents.”
“We protect the rights of every religious group. Hate crimes always remain a significant concern for the NYPD.”
