Jerusalem Police kill unarmed Palestinian at Old City gate
|
[Ynet] Family says dead man had special needs, police say they noticed a 'suspicious object,' that they claim looked like a gun, and told him to stop in his tracks, after which the suspect began to flee
Jerusalem police shot dead an unarmed Palestinian they suspected was carrying a weapon near Jerusalem's Old City on Saturday.
Police said he was carrying "a suspicious object that looked like a pistol" and ran away when ordered to stop. The police say they chased him on foot and opened fire.
A police spokesman did not immediately respond when asked whether the man was in fact carrying a gun.
The family of the young man says he has a mental disability.
The man was later identified as Iyad Halak, 32, a resident of East Jerusalem.
An initial investigation has been opened into the matter and a report has been filed in the Prosecutor's Office following the shooting.
