A Brooklyn man was indicted for allegedly committing several hate crimes in Manhattan.
Skiboky Store, 40, allegedly assaulted, stalked and harassed strangers in a series of anti-female, anti-white, and antisemitic incidents. He was charged with three counts of assault as a hate crime, one count of stalking as a hate crime, and one count of aggravated harassment.
