Police arrest 4 suspected of burning reporter’s car in southern Israel last month

The Shin Bet and police say they have identified and arrested four people from the Bedouin town of Segev Shalom on suspicion of assaulting a reporter in early January and burning his car during general unrest in southern Israel.

The four are aged 18-19. They are suspected of various violent incidents beyond the attack on the journalist, including rock-throwing and a Molotov cocktail attack on a police post.

The four are expected to face indictments on multiple counts of violence.
