IDF search dog sniffed out fugitive gunman's feces, hiding place

[JP] Teams of crack anti-terroist police commandos as well as dogs from the elite canine unit Oketz were the first to discover Nashat Milhem's hiding place in Arara, leading to his death in a shootout that brought an end to a nerve-wracking weeklong manhunt for the man who opened fire indiscriminately in central Tel Aviv on New Year's Day.

A senior IDF official confirmed to The Jerusalem Post's Hebrew-language sister publication Ma'ariv that dogs from Oketz were placed under the command of the elite YAMAM paramilitary police outfit during the search for the gunman.

The key piece of evidence that led investigators to Milhem's hideout in the Wadi Ara town of Arara on Friday was the gunman's feces, which he apparently left for Israeli search dogs to find.

The police found the human waste in the vicinity of the area where the raid took place. After it was taken to a laboratory for testing, the authorities discovered that it matched the DNA of the suspect.

#3 Much as I love them, I believe the 'take away' here is not about honds, but DNA matching. No, not a topic for discussion among progressives. We know where DNA and genetic research leads don't we ?

Yes, according to Ynet some of his friends and relations were indeed hiding him, g(r)omgoru. No doubt it will soon be revealed whether his father was among them.
