Montreal police are investigating after a suspect assaulted a 32-year-old man on Aug. 8 afternoon.

Video posted on social media appears to show a religious Jewish man out with young children being beaten repeatedly by a young man who then throws the victim’s yarmulke before walking away from the scene. The video shows the young girl who accompanied the victim helping him to get to his feet after.
