Elderly Man Brutally Assaulted During Tire Repair Dispute in Afula
A severe violent incident occurred on Monday in the city of Afula, where an elderly man was brutally attacked by a worker at a tire repair shop. The conflict began after the worker refused to return the spare tire to its designated place following the repair of a double puncture on the man's vehicle. The dispute quickly escalated into a physical assault, leaving the elderly man with serious injuries requiring urgent medical treatment.
The attack was captured in exclusive footage obtained by C14, showing the elderly man unable to defend himself against the violent blows. Passersby who witnessed the assault immediately called the police and emergency services. Upon arrival, police detained the suspect for questioning and collected testimonies from witnesses at the scene.
