by Chana Weinman

The Ramapo Police are investigating three incidents of BB gun attacks that targeted frum Jews on the night of Simchas Torah.

The first incident targeted a pair of women at the intersection of Smith Hill Road and Sumter Road in Airmont as the women were on their way to shul. A Dodge Grand Caravan drove past and shot at the pair with a BB gun. This was followed by a similar incident a short time later, also in Airmont.

Fifteen minutes later, another individual was shot at by a BB gun on Bates Drive in Monsey.

The Ramapo Police Department and Chaverim of Rockland are reviewing camera footage of all three places. Anyone with any further information should contact the Ramapo Police Department at 845-357-2400 or Chaverim of Rockland at 845-371-6333.
