Two injured in Jisr az-Zarka gunfight

Two people were shot during a fight between between youths in the Arab-Israeli town of Jisr az-Zarka Friday night. A 40-year-old female kindergarten teacher was in serious condition after suffering a bullet wound to the head. Another bystander was lightly wounded.

Magen David Adom paramedics evacuated both victims to the Rambam Medical Center in Haifa.

Police officers arrived at the scene and arrested a suspect in the shooting. The police suspected the cause of the conflict to be a disagreement over money between two youths, and that the injured woman was an innocent bystander.
