Montreal police say they responded to a 32-year-old man who had been in a “fight” with an unknown suspect on the afternoon of Aug. 8.
Video posted on X by Mayer Feig appears to show a religious Jewish man out with his children being beaten repeatedly by a young man who then throws the victim’s yarmulke before walking away from the scene.
