A man in his 40s was stabbed in the back in Ashdod after he reportedly confronted teenagers riding bicycles recklessly. The incident occurred about a month prior to the report when the victim was on his way to pick up his children from daycare. According to the suspicion, he asked the teenagers to be more careful after one of them rode into him. This led to a group of youths, aged 14 to 17, allegedly attacking him. Security footage shows one of the teens spraying him with pepper spray, and as he turned, another allegedly stabbed him in the back.
Medical teams provided treatment at the scene. An investigation was launched by the police, resulting in the arrest of the minors involved. An indictment has since been filed against them. The victim's daughter told Channel 12 News that the incident has severely impacted her sense of security, stating, "How can I leave the house without being afraid they'll stab me too?"
Investigator Arik Mester of the Ashdod Police Station called the incident "serious" and vowed that law enforcement would "continue to act with determination to bring those involved to justice." He emphasized that the police "will not allow violence to erupt."
