The incident occurred around 7:20 pm last Saturday in the Williamsburg block in Brooklyn, New York. A 21 -year -old woman stood at the intersection of Ross Street and Bedford Avenue. At this time, a dark car drove over, and a passenger in the back seat put the window. The weapon was shot at the woman.

The New York police said that the "bullet" fired by the suspect was a certain kind of bead, and they hit the Jewish orthodox believers who wore wigs for religious reasons. The wig weakened the impact of the "bullet", and the woman was not injured. The suspect fled the scene. As of last Sunday, no one was detained.

It is reported that it is unclear whether the attack will be investigated by the police as a hate crime. As of now, the number of hatred crimes in New York City has increased by 17%over last year, and the number of anti -Jewish hatred crimes has doubled.
