A 28-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the unprovoked attacks on Jews in Stamford Hill two weeks ago.

The man is suspected of carrying out five racially aggravated assaults on Wednesday, 18 August.

He remains in custody at an east London police station.

On Wednesday, 18 August at 6:41pm a 30-year-old man was struck on the head with a bottle on Cazenove Road, N16, sustaining no injuries.

At 7.10pm, a 14-year-old boy was walking on Holmdale Terrace, N15, when he was approached and assaulted without warning, sustaining no lasting injuries.

At around 8.30pm on Stamford Hill, at the junction with Colberg Road, a 64-year-old man was struck in the face. He suffered facial injuries and fell to the ground, breaking a bone in his foot. He was taken to hospital for treatment and was later discharged.

Officers have also been informed of a fourth and fifth victim who have yet to contact police. Efforts to speak to them are ongoing.
