A Jewish man was attacked in his car in the Parisian suburbs. The March 12 attack was carried out by three men of African and North African origin, according to the Office of Vigilance Against Anti-Semitism. The three forced the man to stop his car and forcibly removed him from the vehicle, allegedly calling him a Jew in Arabic. The man was thrown to the ground and beaten; his attackers fled when another car passed by.
