Man killed by elevator doors in Jerusalem
A middle-aged man was apparently crushed to death by a faulty elevator door in a building next to the Jerusalem International Convention Center, medics say.
A first responder from the Magen David Adom rescue service says the man, in his 40s, was found unresponsive next to a freight elevator and declared dead at the scene.
The incident comes two days after a 19-year-old woman was crushed to death by the light rail near the ICC.
