An arrest has taken place after a Jewish driver was allegedly attacked on Golders Green Road this morning.

According to an eyewitness report, a man was seen behaving “violently and aggressively” towards the driver of a car allegedly flying an Israeli flag.

Together with passers-by, Shomrim and CST detained a man until police arrived and he was arrested.

The incident took place outside Kosher Kingdom.

An eyewitness said: “I’ve never seen anything like it in my life. A man just wanted to jump into a Jewish man’s car window… he tried to break it down. You have no idea what I just witnessed.”

CST said in a statement: “This morning in Golders Green, CST personnel stopped a man who they witnessed behaving violently and aggressively towards the driver of a car flying an Israeli flag.
