The man who stabbed and ran over four Jews in Lakewood, NJ on Friday told police detectives that “it had to be done.”
“It’s going to be a bloodbath,” Marsh allegedly told a family member before the attacks, according to documents NJ Advance Media.
Marsh also told detectives that “these are the real devils.” When asked to whom he was referring, he responded, “the Hasidic Jews.”
But this morning an even more frightening attack was caught on video in Elizabeth, NJ.
In a Jewish neighborhood, a driver went on a sidewalk and onto a lawn to deliberately run over what appears to be a fleeing, screaming religious Jewish woman. He ran over her multiple times. The incident occurred only a couple of blocks from a well-known Jewish girls' high school, and mezuzahs can be seen on many doors in the neighborhood.
The video is graphic and chilling:
The driver has been charged with attempted murder. There is nothing in the news yet about any bias motivation.
But given what's going on with Jews lately, it seems quite likely that she was targeted because she is an identifiable Jew.

UPDATE: It does not appear to be a bias crime.
