The suspect, identified as 36-year-old Dan Sohail from Carteret, New Jersey, was arrested and charged with attempted assault as a hate crime. According to Al Jazeera, the incident happened around 8:45 p.m., coinciding with the 75th anniversary of the Rebbe's leadership, a day of great significance for the Chabad community. Surveillance footage showed a gray Honda Accord with New Jersey plates repeatedly striking the building's entrance, as reported by News12. The NYPD responded swiftly, arresting Sohail and conducting a thorough sweep of the area with the Bomb Squad, which deemed the location safe.
