NYC teens caught on camera waving massive machetes in street after stabbing victim: cops
2025-10-03
[NYPOST] Two twisted teens were caught on video waving massive machetes on a Brooklyn street in broad daylight — as cops revealed the toxic pair allegedly stabbed a young man and threatened another.

The footage — posted by the Boro Park Shomrim volunteer patrol
…a silent hint that’s a Jewish neighbourhood. Shomrim means guards or watchmen in Hebrew. Before the IDF there was Haganah. And before Haganah, the Palestinian Jews had Hashomer…
— shows one of the boys, wearing a red hoodie, with the long weapon at his side around 5:10 p.m. Monday before he's joined by a larger group at 43rd Street and New Utrecht Avenue in Borough Park.
It sounds like the lads went looking for an easy little sheep hunt, but found sheepdogs instead.
The group included a ruffian wearing a black hoodie who was also armed with a machete, the footage shows.

The boys can be seen running off into the street, apparently after being spotted by Shomrim members. At one point, one of the youngsters stabbed an 18-year-old man in the back during a dispute and slashed him on the hip, police and sources said.

The boys, 14 and 15, also allegedly menaced a 26-year-old man with a machete at 45th Street and Fort Hamilton Parkway, cops said.

Cops and Shomrim members eventually caught up to the teens — with footage showing NYPD officers cuffing the teen in red on the ground.

Both were arrested and charged with gang assault, assault and criminal possession of a weapon, authorities said.
Initiation prank or just having fun on their afternoon off from gangstering?
''Thanks to their rapid action, a machete was recovered, and two teenagers were arrested,'' the Shomrim said of its members.

The 18-year-old victim was taken to Maimonides Medical Center,
…another hint…
where he was listed in stable, pH balanced condition, police said.
Ouch. Looks like those Jooooos aren’t quite as harmless as all that.
