Boston rabbi stabbing suspect denied bail, authorities investigating as possible hate crime

The 24-year-old man accused of stabbing a Boston rabbi multiple times outside a synagogue was ordered held without bail Friday.

The charges are connected to the Thursday stabbing of Rabbi Shlomo Noginski outside the Shaloh House Jewish Day School in Brighton. He sustained multiple non-life threatening wounds to his arm and is recovering in a hospital.   Awad allegedly drew a gun and told the rabbi to take him to his car and attempted to force him inside, Rabbi Dan Rodkin, executive director of Shaloh House, told Fox News. Noginski tried running across the street to a nearby park called Brighton Common and was stabbed eight times in the arm, he said.  "The victim and suspect walked toward the van and the suspect told the victim to get in the van. At this point, the victim began to flee. The suspect chased the victim across Chestnut Hill Avenue and into a park across the street. The pursuit continued into the park, where the suspect caught up to the victim and stabbed him several times with a knife," according to court documents obtained by WCVB-TV.
