7 youngsters accused of brutally assaulting, killing youth

An indictment has been filed Thursday morning with the Lod District Court against seven youngsters – two adult, five minors – for killing  an 18-year-old Lod resident.

According to the indictment, the group, Netanya residents, were at a Tel Aviv club when an altercation developed between them and another group of youngsters from Lod. The Netanya group chased the others outside, and attacked the victim which lagged behind with bottles, sticks and stones. He was later rushed to a hospital where he died after five days.
