Skinheads verbally abused a Jewish boy in Buenos Aires. The 15-year-old boy, who is the son of a rabbi and was wearing a kipah, was bombarded with anti-Semitic slurs Aug. 17 after he left the subway station in the Belgrano neighborhood. The assailants, three 16- and 17-year-old males, followed the Jewish boy — whose name is being withheld — until he ducked into a local shop where he was aided by a policeman.
