Police searching for man suspected of stabbing Petah Tikvah mall worker
Central District police are searching for a young man suspected of stabbing a mall employee in Petah Tikvah during a fight.
Paramedics took the stabbing victim, an 18-year-old with moderate injuries, to nearby Beilinson Hospital.
The alleged perpetrator is a resident of the city in his 20s. He fled the city’s Sirkin Mall after pulling a knife on the young employee, according to law enforcement.
“The suspect’s identity is known, and upon his arrest, he will be brought before a judge to request an extension on his detention along with an evaluation by medical professionals,” a police spokesman says.
