A man was fatally shot in Jaffa earlier tonight, police say, the second homicide within hours to rock the Tel Aviv area.

The victim was brought by car to Wolfson Hospital by an unknown driver, who promptly left the scene. The man, named by Ynet as Hussein Samouni, was later declared dead by medical staff.

Officers in Jaffa are searching for suspects near the scene of the shooting.

Earlier, a man who was shot and wounded in a northern Tel Aviv parking lot succumbed to his wounds at Ichilov Hospital.

The victim is a Lod resident in his 30s named Amir al-Hawa, Hebrew outlets report. Police apparently suspect the shooting was part of a conflict between two families in the city.
