(NY Post) A hateful suspect accused of slugging a Jewish man wearing an Israeli military hoodie on a Brooklyn street struck a plea deal in the anti-Semitic attack, prosecutors said Tuesday.
Suleiman Othman, 28, was accused of punching Blake Zavadsky twice and tossing an iced coffee on him — simply because Zavadsky was wearing an Israel Defense Forces sweatshirt — on Dec. 26, 2021, in Bay Ridge.
Othman, of Staten Island, pleaded guilty to attempted third-degree assault as a hate crime in Brooklyn Supreme Court on Monday.
Under the terms of a plea deal, Othman is slated to receive a 60-day jail term and three years’ probation at his Sept. 20 sentencing, according to the Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office.
