Two fatal shootings in less than 24 hours: Man found dead after incident in coastal city, reportedly at Brown Beach House Hotel; suspect in killing of woman to appear in court
Two people were arrested Saturday in connection with the death of a man who was found shot dead at a hotel on the beachfront in Tel Aviv.
Police said they responded to reports of gunfire and found the deceased man.
The incident took place at the Brown Beach House Boutique Hotel, Hebrew media reported.
It was unclear if the hotel was open for guests — the majority in the coastal city have been shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The man’s death appeared to be the second fatal shooting in Israel within a 24 hour period.
Marwat Dasuki, 48, was also shot dead in the central city of Lod on Friday. She was reportedly known to welfare services and police.
A man was charged Saturday for her murder. Police said the suspect was due to appear at the Rishon Lezion Magistrate’s Court on Saturday evening.
There was a gag order on his identification.
