Tel Aviv shooting manhunt ends as cops kill suspect

Israeli security forces have found and killed the suspect who shot dead two people and wounded more in a Tel Aviv bar Thursday night, following an hours-long manhunt involving over 100 officers.

The 28-year-old Palestinian suspect was found near a mosque in Jaffa – just outside Tel Aviv itself – sparking a firefight in which he was killed.

Mayor Ron Huldai claimed earlier the gunman had “nationalistic” motives, and follows a string of Palestinian attacks last week that killed 11 people.
