"The unidentified mail carrier, 39, was to be slapped with an additional charge of attempted assault in the second degree Saturday, according to the Ramapo Police Department."
"Home surveillance footage showed the young Orthodox Jewish boy approaching a community mailbox which was being filled by the postal worker, who had his back turned."
"The boy jumped up, collected his religious garment, and hurried back to a group of friends nearby."
"New Yorkers took to social media to express their outrage that the authorities have not announced the identity of the mail carrier."
A 39-year-old postal worker was arrested for violently shoving a 4-year-old Jewish boy, resulting in new charges of attempted assault. The incident, captured on video, showed the boy being pushed to the ground, causing his yarmulke to fall off. Although the child was unharmed, the police have not classified the incident as a hate crime. The postal worker was released on his own recognizance, and public outrage has grown over the decision to withhold his name from the public.
