JERUSALEM: Israeli police have arrested four Israeli teenagers suspected of seriously injuring an Arab youth in downtown Jerusalem, in what local media are calling a hate attack.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said Sunday that a brawl broke out over the weekend between a group of Jewish youths and Arab youths in a central Jerusalem square. One Arab youth was rushed to the hospital unconscious, he said, and four Jewish teens were arrested.
Rosenfeld said police have formed a special investigation team to check whether the attack was politically motivated.
