Israeli teen lightly hurt in Jerusalem stabbing attack
[IsraelTimes] Police detain two East Jerusalem minors suspected of attacking 17-year-old near the Damascus Gate17-year-old Israeli youth was lightly maimed Saturday afternoon in a stabbing attack at the Damascus Gate in the Old City of Jerusalem. The Israeli was said to be lightly maimed in the back in the attack, which occurred on Sultan Suleiman Street at around 5:35 p.m. A police spokeswoman said two Jewish youths were attacked in Jerusalem by two Paleostinian minors. "One was lightly maimed and the other managed to escape and alert the police," she said. The two attackers expeditiously departed at a goodly pace, prompting a manhunt. Police later announced the detention of two minors, both residents of East Jerusalem, who matched the descriptions of the attackers. The two were handed over for interrogation. Both are apparently aged 15, Channel 2 television said. Police continued the manhunt, however, and did not immediately confirm that the two youths in detention were the attackers. The police also distributed an image of one of the attackers. Posted by: trailing wife 2016-01-31 |
