Israeli police arrested a ‘Palestinian’ terrorist from Judea and Samaria on Saturday night in Jerusalem’s Gilo neighborhood after he disguised himself as an ultra-Orthodox Jew while allegedly breaking into a home and stealing a car. Residents first caught the suspect before police arrived and took him into custody.
Police received reports Saturday night about a suspicious person walking around Gilo, along with reports of a break-in at a residence in the area. When officers arrived, they arrested him and found stolen property and burglary tools in his possession.
The suspect, a 29-year-old illegal arab from Judea and Samaria, wore a black-and-white suit and a hat and had attached fake sidelocks to resemble a Haredi man. After his arrest, authorities took him for questioning and brought him before the Jerusalem Magistrate’s Court, which extended his detention until Tuesday.
