Glikstein, who was visiting the US with his family, was on his way to the kosher restaurant Mr. Broadway, a well-known establishment in New York's Jewish community, when a man approached him, pointed at his kippah and asked, "Tell me what your religion is."

When Glikstein tried to walk away, the man snatched the kippah from his head, threw it to the ground, spat on it, and then punched him in the face. Glikstein was later treated at a hospital for his injuries.
