A 14-year-old Jewish schoolgirl has been rushed to hospital with head and facial wounds following an attack in Stamford Hill on Monday evening, the local Shomrim (neighborhood security) reported on Tuesday afternoon.

Several young visibly-Jewish girls were walking from a bus stop to their school - Beis Chinuch Girls' School - for a rehearsal when a male attacker on a balcony pelted them with around a dozen glass bottles and plates, Shomrim told the Jerusalem Post. The attack took place on Woodberry Down Estate.

One of the girls suffered a significant hematoma and facial cuts and was rushed to the Royal London Hospital by Hatzalah, Shomrim added. She has since been discharged from the hospital, however, Shomrim told the Post that she and her friends were "badly shaken and traumatised by the ordeal."
