Police arrested two East Jerusalem residents from the Shuafat refugee camp on suspicion of breaking in to the house of an elderly lady and robbing her under threat of her property.
On Sunday police were summoned to a house in a southern neighborhood of Jerusalem by an 80-year-old woman who said that she was awakened from her sleep after hearing noises and when she went to her living room she saw two youths who threatened her and demanded her money and other items.
The two fled with her cellphone and some cash. Later they were arrested and remanded in custody.
