As reported on Anash.org, the attack occurred when a man drove his car into the Rebbe’s driveway and slammed the back entrance. The attack took place on Motzei Yud Shevat, when thousands of people gathered at 770, including many bochurim who travel from around the world for the special day. Miraculously, not one person was injured.
In a post on the X platform, Mamdani wrote:
“I am at 770 Chabad World Headquarters in Crown Heights, where a man intentionally, and repeatedly, crashed his car into the building. I am relieved that no one was injured in this horrifying incident.
“This is deeply alarming, especially given the deep meaning and history of the institution to so many in New York and around the world. Any threat to a Jewish institution or place of worship must be taken seriously. Antisemitism has no place in our city, and violence or intimidation against Jewish New Yorkers is unacceptable.
“I stand in solidarity with the Crown Heights Jewish community, and I am grateful to our first responders for taking swift action. I will keep New Yorkers updated as we learn more about the incident.”
