Two Kiryat Arba residents being sought by police on motzei Shabbos turned themselves in. It appears they were caught on film firing at Arabs on Thursday during the expulsion of the residents of Bet HaShalom.
They explain they fired in self-defense after coming under a hail of rocks from an Arab mob, stating they fired to extricate themselves, fearing for their lives.
Arab sources report two people were wounded from the gunfire. Police indicate they plan to move ahead with criminal indictments against the two.
