Police announced on October 29, 2026, that a 23-year-old man from the village of Muqeibleh has been indicted on charges of possessing a weapon and operating a motorcycle without a license. The charges stem from an incident on October 10, 2026, when undercover and uniformed officers from the Northern District were deployed in Muqeibleh to address and prevent shootings related to an ongoing local dispute. During their operation, investigators observed an unlicensed electric motorcycle leaving a compound associated with a family involved in the dispute. They followed the motorcycle as it navigated the village, with its riders apparently unaware of the pursuit.
Shortly after, police saw the motorcycle stop near a parked truck, and one of the riders dismounted and began interacting with a toolbox beneath the truck. Investigators approached and apprehended the suspect, discovering a Glock pistol hidden inside the toolbox. The Northern District police prosecutor's unit in Nazareth filed the indictment against the 23-year-old Muqeibleh resident after it was determined he lacked a motorcycle license.
