Firsthand report of attack by Times of Israel reporter
Eric Cortellessa, an intern reporting with the Times of Israel, happened to be at the scene in Jerusalem when today’s attack took place. He reports:
Along the stone sidewalks on Keren Hayesod Street in Jerusalem’s city center, a long line of people — mostly families and teens, a low-key crowd unlike the stereotype of most gay pride parades — marched in solidarity with Jerusalem’s LGBTQ community.
Standing a few hundred yards from The Times of Israel’s Washington Street office, watching what seemed to be a jovial procession I heard screams coming the center of the crowd. Upon turning my shoulder, looking southbound, I saw a young girl lying face down on the street covered in blood.
