Police begin antisemitic hate crime investigation after Jewish man attacked in Golders Green

Police are investigating after a Jewish man in his 20s was attacked in Golders Green, northwest London, in the early hours of Monday.

Officers were called at 2.05am following reports a Jewish man had been assaulted by a number of men outside a property on The Grove.

The Metropolitan Police said its officers were on the scene within six minutes.

They spoke to the alleged victim, who later went to hospital to be treated for facial and back injuries.

The assault is being treated as an antisemitic hate crime, the force said.

No arrests have been made at this stage and police enquiries continue.

The northwest London borough is home to one of the UK's largest Jewish communities, and has seen a number of attacks over the last few months, including an arson attack on ambulances run by a Jewish charity and a stabbing attack, in which two Jewish men were injured.
