Early today Rabbi Nuchem Rosenberg was attacked on the street by the son of an alleged sex offender. According to reports the alleged assailant threw bleach into his face. Rabbi Rosenberg was immediately rushed to a local emergency room where he was treated and released.

The police took Rosenberg's clothes as evidence and according to a reliable source, the police will be arresting the assailant shortly.

According to reports, Rabbi Nuchem Rosenberg has continuously been threatened for many years due to his advocacy work, helping chasidic survivors of child sexual abuse. This newest attempt on his life is believed to be connected to the conviction earlier this week of Nechemya Weberman, who was an unlicensed counselor who molested a young teenage girl living within the Satmar community
