New York (JTA) — He's be-
ing called "the angel of
Crown Heights." But he is
also known around that
Brooklyn neighborhood as
"the red devil."
Rabbi Israel Shemtov
came to the aid of a black
woman who had been shot,
rushed her to the hospital
and, according to her doc-
tors, saved her life with his
quick actions.
The 31-year-old shooting
victim, Tina Haynes, was
covered with blood and
found crawling on the
sidewalk just a few blocks
from where 7-year-old Gavin
Cato was accidentally killed
by a car driven by a Lubavit-
ch Hasid on Aug. 19, 1991,
setting off four days of black
rioting in the neighborhood.
Two years later, on Aug.
12, 1993, Rabbi Shemtov, 53,
was dozing in his car and
listening to the radio while
on duty as part of the Crown
Heights Citizen Patrol, the
controversial group he
founded.
At 2 a.m. he heard gun-
shots.
As he drove down the
street toward the source of
the sound, he saw Ms.
Haynes crawling on her
hands and knees.
Rabbi Shemtov ran to the
phone, called the police and
bundled Ms. Haynes into his
car, rushing her to a nearby
hospital.
Ms. Haynes is currently in
stable but critical condition
after undergoing several
operations to repair the
damage done by seven bullet
wounds in her abdomen,
chest, jaw, legs and one
hand.
Her assailant, who killed
the friend she was visiting,
was reportedly unknown to
her.
Rabbi Shemtov said he
came to Ms. Haynes' aid be-
cause "we're taught that
when a human being needs
help, you must help them. I
put myself in much danger
doing this."
He does not worry about
his own safety while on pat-
rol because "I have a fan-
tastic blessing from the
Lubavitcher rebbe, he
should be well, and that's
been my shield," said Rabbi
Shemtov.
The Crown Heights
Citizen Patrol and its
precursors have had a con-
troversial history, and a
reputation for beating up
blacks, since their founding
in the late 1960s.
Rabbi Shemtov began the
patrol in its current form 22
years ago. It consists of
about 150 Lubavitch men
who take turns each night
driving up and down the
streets of the six-square-
block area of Crown Heights
that is predominantly Jew-
ish, looking for disturbances.
Rabbi Shemtov himself is
known even among Jews in
the neighborhood as "the red
devil."
He earned the name, said
one long-time Crown
Heights resident, because he
is always the first to stir up
trouble with blacks and
police.
Rabbi Shemtov himself
said that he has the moniker
because "the devil goes into
areas where others don't."
He has been arrested
several times for assaults in
connection with his patrol,
Rabbi Shemtov admitted.
But, he added, he has never
been convicted.
