Jaimie Yochlowitz, of the Hells Angels Hardside chapter, started posting the videos a few months ago, though he lamented last week in an Instagram post that his TikTok account had been banned. “It didn’t take long,” he wrote above a screenshot of the note from TikTok banning the account, which used the nickname “Jew.” The water balloon videos and posts were sent to Postmedia by someone who had received copies. Jochlovic did not respond to a message sent through Instagram seeking comment. But less than an hour later, all his social media accounts disappeared. He had also posted the same water balloon videos on his Instagram account with the caption ‘Wet and Wild’. In one of the videos, he fills a red water balloon in a kitchen sink, commenting on drug users blocking his garage door from below. He then opens the window and throws the balloon at someone lying on a blanket in the alley. The victim screams “ahhh” as the balloon hits the ground nearby and splashes it.

Yochlowitz later posted that he had found a new place to live and had moved. “As much fun as it was to pop balloons on heads, I’m glad I’m out of this neighborhood,” he wrote. While Yochlowitz does not show his face in the videos, the tattoos visible on his left arm match those in other photos where his face is clearly visible. And the Instagram account also has the same username – his nickname “Jewsifer”. The videos appear to have been taken from an upstairs apartment in a building at 150 East Cordova overlooking an alley. Postmedia visited the site on Friday and found the same street art and graffiti visible in the videos. Several people in the area said they thought the videos were disgusting even though they hadn’t seen the balloons being dropped.

Photo Francis Georgian /PNG George Middleton, who works across the street from where the balloons fell, said “it’s terrible. What if he didn’t put water in those balloons? Like it could have been anything. Or how about if he froze some? Then you drop them from that height, it would kill someone,” Middleton said after Postmedia showed him one of the videos. He said the level of frustration among people in the neighborhood is growing. “After seeing his videos, it’s clear where he’s coming from and what’s going on. It’s just wrong.” Vancouver police Const. Tanya Visindin said police are now investigating the videotaped incidents. Taz Khandwani, of the Pivot Legal Society, called the balloon shooting “despicable acts” which “constitute yet another brazen example of targeted violence against homeless and precariously housed members of our society”.

“Ultimately, this violence is supported by anti-homeless policies and rhetoric from police and government officials, which create housing insecurity and legitimize stigma against homelessness,” he said. Hells Angels spokesman Rick Ciarniello did not respond to an emailed request for comment. Retired Vancouver police bicyclist Brad Stephens said the videos are disturbing. “Anyone who victimizes those who are vulnerable reflects a certain mindset. These poor people need help, not ridicule,” Stephen said. “I remember the days when outlaw motorcycle gang members would gang up on a guy in a nightclub just because they looked at him the wrong way. If this was a Hells Angel member, then his actions represent the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club.” [email protected] Twitter.com/kbolan More news, less ads: Our in-depth journalism is made possible by the support of our subscribers.
