A possible suspect has been arrested from a vehicle matching the description of the one used to escape the synagogue where five people were wounded Saturday night New York time in a stabbing attack at what is known as Rabbi Rottenburg’s Shul, located in the Forshay neighborhood in Monsey.

A police official told local media that a possible suspect and a vehicle had been located by the New York Police Department (NYPD) in the 32nd Precinct, which serves the northeastern portion of Harlem.

According to (orthodox website) Vos Iz Neias, a black male entered the synagogue and pulled out a machete, then removed its cover and started stabbing people. The Orthodox Jews Public Affairs Council of the area posted on Twitter that five people were stabbed. Other sources were reporting three and four.

I hope the victims recover quickly.
