Police arrest ‘primary suspect’ in attack on Jewish diners in LA, will seek hate crime charges

Police in Los Angeles have arrested one of the pro-Palestinian activists that attacked a group of diners, while allegedly using anti-Semitic slurs. The man has been charged with assault and could face hate crime charges.

The man, who the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) described as “one of the primary suspects in the assault and beating of several men” outside a restaurant in the Mid-City area of Los Angeles on Tuesday, was taken into custody on Saturday thanks to tips provided by the public, the LAPD said.
