A Muslim police officer reported being harassed in Bay Ridge on Saturday, December 3rd around 6pm. Story Here and more here
The NYPD officer, Aml Elsokary dropped her son off on 67th Street and Ridge Boulevard in Bay Ridge. A man in his 30’s started to shove Elsokary’s son. The Bay Ridge man did not know Elsokary was a police officer because she was not in uniform. Too bad she didn’t have her shield and gun!
The man said, “ISIS *****, I will cut your throat, go back to your country!” (People stop telling other people to go back to their country – it’s just mean!)
Video cameras in the area were checked and a store owner said the man walked around in the area with his dog.
The 68th Precinct is investigating. More of the story here and here
Update: A 36 year old man was arrested – also here
