Cops are linking the incident, which took place at around 6.40pm on Wednesday, to a spate of unprovoked attacks.

Shortly after the assault, a Jewish boy, 14, was walking in Hackney when he was set upon at around 7.10pm.

A shocking video clip shows the child being "viciously punched".

And a 64-year-old grandfather was assaulted the same day at around 8.30pm in Stamford Hill, North London.
