FORT GREENE, Brooklyn (WABC) -- Police have identified a person of interest in a hate crime after a 40-year-old man was attacked at a playground in Brooklyn a week ago.
The attack happened on November 7 at Edmonds Playground in Fort Greene.
The victim, who is not Palestinian and is of Indian descent, was with his 18-month-old son, when a woman threw a cup of coffee in his face and accused him of supporting Hamas.

Authorities say they have probable cause to arrest the woman, who was identified from numerous tips to CrimeStoppers and are actively looking for her.
They say she lives near the playground where the attack happened.
No arrests have been made so far.
