'Deserved so much more...': New York Mayor as Sikh man dies after being assaulted over minor car accident

A 66-year-old Sikh man died of his head injuries after being assaulted after a minor car accident, marking it the second attack against a Sikh person within a week in New York. Jasmer Singh was attacked by 30-year-old Gilbert Augustin after their vehicles collided in Queens last Thursday. New York City Mayor Eric Adams has condemned the incident and vowed to protect the community. “Jasmer Singh loved his city and deserved so much more than his tragic death. On behalf of all New Yorkers, I want our Sikh community to know you have more than our condolences. You have our sacred vow that we reject the hatred that took this innocent life and we will protect you,” Adams said in a post on X.
