The Jewish passengers on the bus were on their way to celebrate Hanukkah when the attack occurred.
This was not the only antisemitic attack during the Jewish holiday, as an 18-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy were assaulted on the first night of Hanukkah in Brooklyn.
Also during the first night of the holiday, a menorah in Dnipro, Ukraine had been desecrated.
The incident, captured on security cameras showed five young individuals knocking the menorah off its hinges.
