Jewish man stabbed, another beaten in East Jerusalem

Friday, 21 November 2014

A Jewish man was reportedly stabbed in the back and another was beaten with a metal bar as they walked among a group of Jews to pray in the Israeli-occupied East Jerusalem, Al Arabiya’s correspondent reported on Friday.

"A group of Jewish worshippers were attacked as they walked...to Beit Horot," a police statement said according to Agence France-Presse.

Beit Horot is a Jewish seminary set up on the Mount of Olives by ultranationalist rabbi Benny Elon in 1999.

On Tuesday, two Palestinians attacked a synagogue in West Jerusalem, killing four worshippers and fatally wounding a policeman who arrived at the scene.

Tensions heightened over the past days between Israelis and Palestinians in the area, mostly over Palestinian claims that Israel wants to change the status quo at a contested Jerusalem holy site by allowing Jewish prayer there.

Tucson Az - Woman injured, dog dies in incident with javelina

TUCSON- A woman was injured and her dog died during an incident involving two javelina on the northwest side Saturday night.

According to Game and Fish spokesman Mark Hart, the woman opened the back door of her house in the 2300 block of W. Ruthrauff Road and her dog broke loose from its collar and attacked two javelina.

During the incident the woman sustained a leg wound and was transported to the hospital.

"Javelina may react instinctively to the presence of dogs, which they cannot distinguish from a natural predator such as a coyote," said Regional Supervisor Raul Vega of Game and Fish in Tucson. "The victim was taken by surprise by the presence of the javelina and unfortunately was unable to control her dog. We recommend that dog owners out walking their pets immediately head in the opposite direction if they encounter javelina."

Filmmakers apologize for fake 'Syrian hero boy' video

In an open letter to Klevberg and the film's financers, journalists and other opponents of the clip wrote, "Syrian children have been the target of snipers, barrel bombs and massive atrocities for over three years, much of which has been documented, painstakingly, by citizen journalists and journalists alike in the most dangerous and dire of circumstances. This film undermines the work and the people who continue to document crimes against humanity."

Colombian girl's dad had her swallow cocaine caps

BOGOTA, Colombia - An 11-year-old girl is in critical condition after doctors removed from her stomach 104 cocaine-filled capsules her father made her swallow to smuggle drugs to Europe, police said Wednesday.

Officers are hunting for the girl's father, who was seen on closed circuit television rushing Monday into an emergency room in Cali with his daughter in his arms, then leaving coolly minutes later.

The capsules contained about a half-kilogram (more than a pound) of narcotics, police said.

Police raided the man's home and say they found a plane ticket to Madrid in the girl's name.

"In 30 years of service I've seen all kinds of strategies to smuggle drugs but nothing as reprehensible as this," Gen. Hoover Penilla, commander of the Cali police, told The Associated Press.

Colombia's child welfare institute says it will take custody of the child.
