Three Women Assault Man in Kfar Yona Over Parking Dispute Involving Prison Service Officer

In Kfar Yona, 25-year-old Tohar David was violently attacked by three women following a parking dispute involving a Prison Service officer. The assault occurred late Sunday night near midnight, where the women, all in their twenties and local residents, struck David with bats and an iron rod, also damaging his car windows. The attack was captured on video by shocked bystanders and neighbors who called the police for help.

David was hospitalized at Meir Medical Center with head injuries and bleeding. He recounted that the incident began when a car blocked him, and three women emerged wielding weapons. Fortunately, a friend recorded the attack, which David said was crucial for proving the assault. The police arrested the three women, who claimed the attack was retaliation after David allegedly insulted the sister of one of the assailants, a Prison Service officer, during the parking dispute.

David denied any threats or insults, stating the argument was only about parking. A criminal indictment was filed against the three women for assault, causing injury, and intentional harm. The investigating unit requested to extend their detention. David's lawyer described him as a victim of a severe, premeditated violent act that could have had worse consequences.

The Prison Service officer involved was questioned on suspicion of ordering the attack but denied the allegations and was placed under house arrest for several days. Authorities will decide whether to press charges against her. The case highlights the escalation of violence over minor disputes and the involvement of a public official in the incident.
