      Jerusalem Arabs Indicted for Attack


      Three Arab men from Jerusalem have been indicted for an attack on two municipal workers earlier in the week.  The men were indicted for deliberately endangering life in a transportation lane, assault, and attacking public employees.

      The men were part of a group that attacked two municipal inspectors on Monday as they drove on Salah A-Din Street in eastern Jerusalem.  The group threw rocks at the inspectors’ car, breaking its windows, and attacked the vehicle with metal poles.  The workers managed to escape by driving briefly on the sidewalk.  One of the workers later described the incident as an attempted lynch.
