Jewish man assaulted in Villeray
A Jewish man was assaulted in Park Ex on Friday, and there’s even video. There hasn’t been any arrest.
This didn’t happen in Villeray, though, despite CTV’s headline. The location is at the southwestern edge of Park Ex.

He was assaulted in front of his three small children. “The suspect then threw the victim’s kippa to the ground before leaving.”

I’m finding it odd that all the outlets are being coy about what happened. Was there an argument? Did the two men know each other? Was it a random attack? Is it a robbery? A hate crime? a gambling debt?
It’s pretty obviously being presented as a hate crime by the commentary that IS included, all the more reason to say so if it was.
