In the early hours of a July morning, two men were stabbed in separate, unprovoked attacks near Central Park on Manhattan's Upper West Side — a neighborhood with deep historical and cultural roots in New York's Jewish community. Police moved swiftly to take a suspect into custody, and investigators are now weighing whether hatred, not mere violence, was the animating force behind the assaults. The case asks a question cities have long struggled to answer: when does a crime against a person become a crime against a people?
