Bakers Hill, London – Police are investigating after a
13-year-old Jewish schoolgirl was pelted with eggs outside a Jewish school in
Bakers Hill, London, which provides education for children with special needs.
The girl, who is autistic, was left completely traumatised.
CCTV showed youths on bicycles apparently loitering in wait, throwing
the egg, and then cycling away before anybody could intervene. The girl
immediately ran into the school.
Whilst the youths did not shout any antisemitic slurs, Stamford Hill
Shomrim, a Jewish volunteer neighbourhood watch patrol, has reported numerous
incidents in which Jews were pelted with eggs, and the youths appeared to be
targeting the Jewish school.
