Once again there were racial tensions in Jerusalem’s northern Pisgat Ze’ev neighborhood, leading to a brawl last Sunday. The latest incident was sparked by Jewish youth seeing a group of Arab youths paying too much attention to a Jewish female.

Police were dispatched and a local Jerusalem report states some of the police required medical treatment for light injuries as a result. Two Jews and one Arab were arrested. Police report one of the Jews threatened to kill police for interfering. Police report a total of 10-15 youths were involved.
