Benzi is a 10-year-old boy. He doesn't speak English, and he came with his parents to the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn for Ben-David's Bar Mitzvah.

Last Friday, his parents left him a note, asking him to "ask Jews where the Rebbe's house is" - the private home of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, ztk"l, located in the center of the neighborhood.

The boy set out on his journey - and got lost.

After six hours of searching, the boy, who speaks Hebrew, Yiddish and Russian, found his way back to where his family was staying, not before passing through concentrations of blacks, Muslims and the most disaster-prone areas of Brooklyn.

So the next time you think you're in a safe place, and the child can walk alone - think again.
