🚨 HATE ATTACK: MULTIPLE HATZOLAH AMBULANCES IN GOLDERS GREEN SET ABLAZE
Multiple Hatzolah ambulances erupted in flames in London’s Golders Green neighborhood early Monday morning. Footage showed at least four ambulances ablaze.
Surveillance footage from the scene captured three hooded suspects with gas canisters approaching the lot where the ambulances were parked and setting them ablaze. Additional footage captured the suspects fleeing the scene after carrying out their dastardly act.
Police and Shomrim have not yet identified the suspects, and an all-out effort is now underway to find them and bring them to justice.
Statement from Shomrim:
We strongly condemn the deliberate anti semitic attack on Hatzola ambulances in NW London. This was not only a criminal act of arson, but a targeted and deeply concerning incident affecting a vital emergency service serving the Jewish community.
Hatzola provides life-saving medical care to all who need it. An attack on these ambulances is an attack on the safety, wellbeing, and resilience of our community.
We are working closely with the police and all relevant authorities and assisting with the ongoing investigation.
There is no place for antisemitism or hate in our society. We stand united and will continue to support and protect our community.
We thank the police and fire brigade for their swift, professional response and for ensuring the safety of the public.
Golders Green Road (A502) will reopen shortly, while a small cordon will remain in place on Highfield Road NW11.
Whilst the community may have woken up to this and understandably feel scared, we urge the community to remain calm but vigilant and there is no reason why children should not return to schools as usual.
Police Superintendent Sarah Jackson, who leads policing in the local area said: “We know this incident will cause a great deal of community concern and officers remain on scene to carry out urgent enquiries. We are in the process of examining CCTV and are aware of online footage. We believe we are looking for three suspects at this early stage.
“There have been no arrests yet, and we would urge anyone with information to please contact us as soon as possible – you can do so anonymously if you wish.
“We will be engaging with faith leaders and carrying out additional patrols in the local area as we continue our investigation to provide reassurance and a highly visible presence.”
Anyone with information is asked to call police 101 quoting CAD415 of 23March or to remain anonymous call the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
