at PS 682 in Gravesend on June 14 included Johan Nunez getting smashed in the head with a woman’s black stiletto and wife Lana Lerner dragged along the ground by her hair, said the family, which filed a notice of claim, or precursor to a lawsuit, Monday.

Lerner, an underwriter with twins who were graduating at the time, remembers how her own mother recoiled and left her seat in disgust.“I can’t sit through this,” Lerner’s mother, a Jewish refugee from Ukraine, said to her daughter in Russian. “The administrator basically told her that ‘we contacted legal and were told it’s free speech and it’s allowed,’” Lerner said.That’s when the large family of the boy with the Palestinian cap and flag approached and tried to shove them out of the way, according to the notice of claim.

Multiple people joined in on the fracas, including a woman who nailed Nunez with her black stiletto, the family said.She tried to record with her phone but only captured a few moments before “a woman from the same family came up from the left side of me, pulled me by the hair, dragged me on the ground, kicked me, said, ‘I’m going to kill you,’” Lerner said.
