Mother of 12 crushed to death by her own car in Ashdod
Rabbanit Galit Dabush, 44, dies after being pinned to parking garage wall by rolling vehicle
A woman was killed Sunday when she was hit by her own car in a parking garage on Shevet Levi Street in the coastal city of Ashdod.
She was later named as 44-year-old Galit Dabush, a prominent woman in her community and a rabbi’s wife, who had 12 children and several grandchildren.
Dabush was crushed between the car and a wall when the vehicle rolled onto her.
Firefighters were alerted to extract her, but Magen David Adom paramedics eventually declared her dead at the scene.
The accident was being investigated by traffic police.
According to initial assessments, the car was not shifted into park gear or the handbrake wasn’t pulled up, leading it to slide and hit Dabush. The car wasn’t found to be faulty.
She was buried Sunday at the Ashdod city cemetery.
