Ebony Jackson, 37, she’s black, has been charged with two counts each of felony assault, felony criminal possession of a weapon with a previous conviction, and menacing. She attacked two Asian women with a hammer.
Ms. Jackson is not a white supremacist.
Police released a surveillance video that showed a woman — we now know is Ebony Jackson — accosts two Asian women walking on the sidewalk from behind. The woman demanded they remove their masks before striking one of them in the head with a hammer, police said. The suspect then ran away.
The New York Police Department’s Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating the assault.
