Medic for Jewish Rescue Org.Stabbed in Brooklyn; David Katz,34, Is in Hospital in Serious Condition

A volunteer Hatzolah (Jewish rescue organization) medic was stabbed last night in Brooklyn's Crown Heights section, and the attacker escaped, the Jewish Press website reports today (November 4, 2015).

David Katz, 34, was stabbed in the back by a man who sneaked up and ambushed him from behind at around 8:20 p.m. on the corner of Eastern Parkway and Rogers Avenue. Katz was taken to Kings County Hospital, where he is in serious but stable condition.

The masked stabber -- who fled the scene -- was described as a six-foot-tall black male.

It is not yet certain if the attack was a Jewish hate crime or was a copycat crime of the current multitude of stabbings of Jews in Israel by radical Muslims.
