    Suspect arrested for throwing Molotov cocktail at hospital

    Police have arrested a 16 year-old Arab for throwing Molotov cocktails at Hadassah Mt. Scopus Hospital. The bottles exploded in the back courtyard of the hospital; no injuries were reported. He admitted to the act during interrogation.

    The self-same minor was convicted in 2015 of throwing a Molotov cocktail at a passing car near The Hebrew University near Mt. Scopus.

    The minor has been held in police custody for several days. Police are expected to submit a request tomorrow to extend his detention, pending the completion of their investigation.
