London – A disabled, elderly Jewish man and his family were abused on a London bus.

The man, who is wheelchair bound, was accompanied by his wife, son, grandchildren and carer when a woman reportedly shouted: “You think you own the bus, dirty Jews! I will punch you!”

The family was said to have been shocked to the point of tears.

The incident is believed to have occurred on a 253 bus from Euston to Leabridge at 18:40 on Sunday and was reported yesterday by Stamford Hill Shomrim, the Jewish volunteer neighbourhood watch patrol.
