Police have arrested a man following a spate of attacks in Stamford Hill, where a suspect with an e-scooter was filmed ramming into two Orthodox Jewish women and a girl, according to Jewish security charity Shomrim.
The alleged attacks took place on Monday afternoon in Clapton Common, in the Stamford Hill area of north London.
In footage shared by Shomrim, the suspect was seen riding his e-scooter on the pavement and colliding with a 21-year-old Orthodox woman, reportedly shouting “f***ing Jews” during the assault.
The victim sustained a fractured arm, a bruised leg, and a facial scar, and was taken to hospital for treatment, the charity said.
Later on Monday, the same man was filmed pushing his scooter towards another woman, this time a 24-year-old woman with her three-year-old daughter, who fell to the ground after the incident.
Shomrim said the three-year-old was left “shocked and traumatised”.
The charity said the incidents were “unprovoked antisemitic attacks” and “a shocking act of rogue violence against women and girls.”
Shomrim volunteers followed the suspect, who was subsequently arrested by the Metropolitan Police for racially aggravated common assault and common assault, according to the charity.
Shomrim released CCTV footage capturing the attacks, along with a clip showing three police cars and a van into which the suspect was taken.
Scotland Yard has been approached for comment.
