Met Police are investigating a suspected anti-Semitic incident in Hendon, north London, in which a car is reported to have driven toward Jewish schoolchildren and mounted the pavement. Multiple reports say the incident involved teenagers who were walking or moving near the area when a vehicle approached at speed. According to the accounts, the children began running to avoid being hit after the car came onto the pavement, prompting fear and immediate concern for their safety.
The reports describe the incident as being treated by police as potentially linked to anti-Semitic hostility, though the motive is not stated definitively in the available information. Police investigation is ongoing, including inquiries into the circumstances of the driving and whether the behaviour is connected to broader threats or prior incidents.
No details are provided in the sources about injuries, arrests, or the identity of the driver or vehicle. The Metropolitan Police continue to assess evidence and statements from those involved and witnesses to determine what happened and what charges, if any, may follow.
