Comptroller Scott M. Stringer Statement On Attack Inside Chabad-Lubavitch World Headquarters

This morning’s attack on a Jewish student inside Chabad-Lubavitch World Headquarters in Brooklyn was a horrific act of violence that has no place in our City. As New Yorkers, we condemn all acts of hatred and bigotry, because an attack on one group is an attack on us all. My thoughts and prayers are with Levi Rosenblatt and his family, and I wish him a speedy recovery. This troubling incident highlights the need to increase support for people with mental illness in our City to possibly avoid tragic events like this in the future.
