The Shomrim volunteer security group is appealing for eyewitnesses after an incident in which antisemitic abuse was directed at shul-goers.

According to the group, on Monday afternoon at 2.50pm, a car pulled up outside a synagogue in Hendon, north-west London, where a celebration had just taken place.

The driver of the vehicle, described as a white man in his mid-to-late twenties, allegedly shouted “F*** Jewish [sic], f*** Jewish, Heil Hitler”, as well as performing Nazi salutes, at people emerging from the shul.

There was at least one other person in the car, with reports suggesting they joined in.
