Man in SoHo accused of throwing bag of dog feces while making antisemitic statements

Police are searching for a man accused of throwing a bag of dog feces at a 32-year-old man in SoHo earlier this month.

The incident occurred on June 4, around 2 p.m., according to the NYPD who released video of the suspect appearing to take out the bag from inside of his jacket. He was riding his bicycle on the sidewalk.

Police say the man approached the victim in front of 46 Howard Street and made antisemitic statements before throwing the black bag of feces at the victim. The bag landed inside of the victim's vehicle, according to the NYPD.

It's unclear whether the two exchanged words before the incident.
