The gunman who opened fire on a Jewish man walking to synagogue in Chicago is an illegal migrant from West Africa who was released into the US last year — and he targeted the victim because of his faith, law enforcement sources tell The Post.

Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi, 22 — who hails from Mauritania — crossed into San Diego in March 2023 and was screened by border agents, who quickly released him into the US, officials said.

Federal investigators believe Abdallahi was specifically targeting Jews in an antisemitic attack when he ambushed a 39-year-old Orthodox Jewish man in the city’s West Ridge neighborhood — which is home to several synagogues, sources said.

The gunman was then reportedly caught on video shouting “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire on police — who critically wounded him in a shootout.

The Cook County prosecutor has sparked outrage from the Windy City’s Jewish community after Abdallahi was not charged with a hate crime.

“… who hails from Mauritania…”

1. Can one actually “hail” from Mauritania?
2. Mauritania is actually the leading country involved in the modern slave trade.

Biden-Harris clowns have been importing Jihad into America. As if we didn’t have enough headaches. How inept and reckless the Democrats are!

Before you said it was a country I would have bought someone telling me it was one of the sister ships of the Titanic that also sank.

I officially could not find it on a map.
