Security footage from a nearby building shows the suspect, carrying an umbrella, approach the couple from behind, and slashing the father on the head, the mother on the lip, and the baby on the chin.
The attacker, Darryl Jones, was arrested and charged with three counts of assault. The victims were treated at the scene and told the police Jones said nothing anti-Semitic during the attack.
According to the New York Post, Jones had been released from prison the month before. He spent several years in jail after pleading guilty to attempted murder tied to a violent August 2011 robbery on the Upper East Side.
