The robbery took place on September 14, 2022, at a tobacco store in Queens.

New York Mayor Eric Adams, when asked about protests that may unfold during the parade, told reporters the city respected free-speech rights but would not tolerate any disruption.

A spokesperson for Adams denied the claim and said the mayor does not know the accuser and does not recall meeting her.

The following day, an inert grenade was found at Holocaust Memorial Park in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, and a false bomb threat was called into Central Synagogue in Midtown Manhattan.

In some of the anti-Jewish incidents last month, three Jewish men were shot with a BB gun in Brooklyn, an Israeli student was struck with a stick at Columbia University, and a man punched a woman.

“This is a case of a harassed woman and it is riddled with mystery and confusion,” her attorney Paul DerOhannesian said.

The ADL report said that antisemitic incidents spiked 36% nationwide last year.

The police are still looking for the other two people who were involved in the attack.

The attack, which officials say was unprovoked, took place before midnight outside a secure area set up for New Year's Eve celebrations.
