Police on Erev Shabbos arrested a 26-year-old Ashdod male after he broke into a shul. The investigation into the break-in revealed the man in custody was a son of the shul’s gabbai, who was absolutely dumbfounded over learning of his son’s actions.
The suspect was apprehended inside the shul in the Rova Gimmel area of Ashdod during the night. It was first believed he entered to quench his thirst, as he was found next to a sink. As they probed his actions they realized he hid the pushke he emptied behind the sink.
He was taken in by Ashdod police and later released to house arrest.

Hopefully, the stupidity demonstrated by this ganof is not genetic or the ehrliche yidden of Ashdod need to find a new gabbai rishon. He broke into the shul “to get a drink of water from the sink”??? Like there is no water in Ashdod other than in the shul’s sink
