Two young men have been indicted for a severe assault in the heart of Afula, where they allegedly surrounded and repeatedly stabbed a man they had a dispute with, in front of his partner. The incident occurred as the victim and his partner were walking towards a food stand. After an initial brief exchange, the two accused, along with friends, cornered the victim, forming a circle to prevent his escape, and proceeded to attack him with a utility knife, spikes, and a screwdriver, stabbing him multiple times across his body. The victim's partner was also injured and fell during the assault.
Following the stabbing, the assailants allegedly threatened the victim, warning him they would shoot him if he reported the incident to the police. They also demanded that he leave Afula. The two suspects fled the city and remained at large for over two weeks before being apprehended by Northern District Police.
