Prosecutors said a Brooklyn man accused of beating up a Jewish man in a hate attack in midtown Manhattan last week — in which he allegedly called the victim a "dirty Jew" — declared from his jail cell that he would "do it again," the New York Post reported.
What are the details?
The Post said Waseem Awawdeh, 23, was held on $10,000 bail in connection to the Thursday attack and is accused of punching, kicking, and pepper-spraying 29-year-old Joseph Borgen — as well as beating the victim with crutches.
"If I could do it again, I would do it again," Awawdeh told one of his jailers, according to a prosecutor at the suspect's Saturday arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court, the paper reported. "I have no problem doing it again."
Here's a clip of Awawdeh in custody:
