A man involved in guarding the doors of Heaton Park Hebrew Synagogue during the Yom Kippur attack in Manchester says he has received death threats. Yoni Finlay, 40, is described as the son of a survivor of the earlier synagogue attack and as having barricaded doors during the incident while trying to protect people inside.
The account states that Finlay was accidentally shot by a police bullet while he was barricading the entrances from a knifeman. The reports focus on the subsequent threats he says he receives, while noting his background connected to the previous synagogue attack. Across the two provided entries, the central details remain consistent: Finlay’s age, the location at Heaton Park Hebrew Synagogue, the timing on Yom Kippur, the role he played in barricading doors, and the claim that the injury came from a police bullet.
With only these sources, there is limited information about who is making the threats, the nature of the messages, or any formal police or court response. The reports do not provide additional investigative context beyond Finlay’s account and the earlier incident in which he was injured.
