Overview
- Influencer Michelle Iman Schmukler reported that a neighbor shouted antisemitic slurs and hurled a metal bar toward her and her eight-month-old at their Palermo home.
- The couple say responding officers advised them to move out and the on-duty prosecutor initially authorized a panic button rather than a detention.
- Fiscalía de Primera Instancia N°5 summoned the victim, confirmed assignment of a panic button, and a City Police patrol car was stationed outside the residence.
- DAIA publicly labeled the incident a grave antisemitic aggression and said the family is under police protection, while the City’s Security Ministry referred alleged police inaction to Internal Affairs.
- Clarín reports the prosecutor ordered a psychiatric evaluation at Hospital Fernández; the suspect attended voluntarily and is to return for further studies with police accompaniment, a socio-environmental report was ordered, and he remains in the building without reported detention.
