Police received a report via social media of a man threatening another man with a bottle on Woodberry Grove at approximately 4.30pm on December 13.
While no injuries were reported to police, Shomrim, a voluntary neighbourhood watch which specialises in supporting the victims of hate crime, reported that a Jewish man was chased by another man who was holding empty glass bottles and shouting antisemitic remarks.
Shomrim has also reported several instances of hate speech scrawled on walls in Stamford Hill this month and police arrested a man in his 60s on patrol in Manor Road on suspicion of racially-motivated criminal damage.
