Two hate-spewing criminals separately attacked straphangers during recent subway rides, cops say.
One antisemitic hater pummeled a 27-year-old straphanger and snatched his Jewish necklace on a Queens train, according to police.
The victim was riding a northbound F train at Parsons Avenue around 7 a.m. Jan. 13 when the brute approached and snarled, “F–k you, Jew, and f–k Israel. I know what you Jews are doing. You kill Palestine. You ran down Palestine,” cops said.
He then slapped and punched the victim in the face, police said.
The hate-fueled attacker also snatched the victim’s mezuzah necklace – a traditional Jewish pendant – before running off, police said.
The victim refused medical attention after the violent encounter.
The NYPD released surveillance footage of the suspect in hopes of tracking him down.
Separately, a hate-fueled female Manhattan attacker approached a 56-year-old woman and seethed anti-Asian vitriol at her aboard a downtown No. 1 train approaching the 59th Street-Columbus Circle subway station around 8 p.m. Jan. 16, cops said.
The bigoted assailant then punched the woman in the head, police said.
The victim was taken to a local hospital for treatment, and the suspect took off, police said.
Anyone with information on either attacker – both of whom are still on the lam – is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
