Police: Officers shoot, critically wound informant’s knife-wielding relative
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePolice say officers shot and critically wounded an assailant who drew a knife at them at the home of an informant in the central Arab town of Zemer a short while ago.
The officers had rushed to the scene after receiving a distress call from the informant, who reported that the suspect, his relative, was “going wild” there, police say.
Separately, police say they are investigating a shooting earlier this evening on Haifa’s Yad LaBanim Street that left a man seriously wounded.
The shooting was “apparently criminal” in nature, rather than nationalist, police say.
