German Police Arrest Woman Accosting Jewish Children Speaking Hebrew

A 57-year-old woman was arrested in Munich, Germany, after cursing at children and teachers from the city's Jewish elementary school.

The local police say that the incident took place last Friday, shortly after 8:00 a.m. In addition, the police said that the woman had committed similar offenses in the past.

Shortly after the incident, the school teachers called the police, who soon arrested the woman.

In her interrogation, she claimed that she decided to curse after hearing the group of Jews speaking in Hebrew.

Over the weekend, police in the German capital of Berlin began investigating a possible antisemitic attack after a 19-year-old Israeli tourist reported being attacked by three men. US watchdog organization StopAntisemitism shared this story with their audience on Twitter.

The unit of the Berlin police responsible for investigating politically motivated crimes is looking into the case after the tourist suffered minor injuries to one of his arms and his face on Saturday night.

The Israeli tourist told police he was walking on a street in the city’s Kreuzberg district together with an 18-year-old woman while speaking on his phone in Hebrew.
