New York City: Queens Teen Sends Anti-Jew E-mails To 300 Classmates
February 4, 2026
"...A 17-year-old male student at Renaissance Charter School in Jackson Heights, Queens, New York, was arrested on February 2, 2026, after allegedly sending antisemitic death threats via email to over 300 classmates.
The incident occurred around 12:30 p.m., with the emails originating from a school-issued account under the student's name. The message explicitly stated: "At 2pm we will rise up and kill all the Jews in this school and the city. F**k the Jews".
School administrators reported the threats to the NYPD's 115th Precinct, leading to a swift response and the student's arrest at the school by approximately 3:30 p.m. that day.
He was charged with making a terroristic threat and aggravated harassment as a hate crime, and the case is being investigated by the NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force.
Authorities confirmed the situation was resolved without incident. The teen's arraignment in Queens Criminal Court is pending..."
