24-Hour Police Patrol Guards Brooklyn Synagogue
BROOKLYN (JTA)—Spokesmen
for the 66th Precinct and the
mayor's office confirmed Wednes-
day that a special 24-hour police
patrol hat been in effect at Khal
Adath Sochochow Synagogue since
an attack on congregants Yom
Kippur night.
The police spokesman said
the patrol would continue in-
definitely. A policeman maintains
watch on each of the three
eight-hour shifts.
According to reports earlier this
week from residents in the Boro
Park area, the special patrol had
been removed last weekend. Al-
though the Jewish Defense League
had set up its own patrol, a
source close to the synagogue said
Wednesday that its members were
no longer visible.
District Attorney Eugene Gold
told the Jewish Telegraphic Agen-
cy Wednesday that he was giving
the "tense" situation "special at-
tention," and that he had received
"a commitment from the police"
to keep special watch over the
area.
At Day of Atonement services
at the Orthodox Synagogue Oct.
10, young congregants were at-
tacked by 50 Puerto Rican youths,
who insulted them and threatened
"blood and revenge." One of the
two assailants subsequently ar-
t rested was scheduled to appear
in court Wednesday.
Persons residing in this neigh-
borhood told a JTA reporter that
in the days following the inci-
dent they have been accosted by
Puerto Rican youths. The arrest
of two allegedly involved in the
assault h a s infuriated t h e
youths, and a threat was report-
ed to have been made upon the
life of an Orthodox woman who
identified one of the assailants
arrested.
The unnatural quiet which has
settled over this neighborhood
particularly alarms the residents
who fear that "something bad is
brewing."
In reaction to the synagogue at-
tack, more than 500 persons gath-
ered in Boro Park on the night of
