Man pleads guilty to ramming car into Chabad Lubavitch headquarters in Brooklyn

Dan Sohail, 36, of New Jersey pleaded guilty Wednesday to intentionally damaging religious property after ramming his car into the Chabad Lubavitch world headquarters in Brooklyn five times in January, causing approximately $19,000 in damage. He resolved the case without a hate crime conviction and faces up to three years in prison, though federal sentencing guidelines recommend up to six months. A Chabad rabbi expressed concern that the potential sentence would send an insufficient deterrent message.
