Three arrested over Kafr Kanna shooting attack
Three people have been arrested in connection with a shooting that injured six members of a Kafr Kanna family Saturday, police say.
Two masked gunmen had opened fire in the yard of a home in the Galilee town before fleeing the scene.
A statement from authorities says that officers operating overnight raided “several compounds,” nabbing three suspects, as well as an M-16, a grenade and ammunition that had been hidden.
Cops also prevented a firefight and seized two Carlo-style submachine guns and a pistol, they say.
The attack, which police say was part of an ongoing clan dispute, left two people seriously injured.
“The police call on formal and informal leaders to act to thwart violent and bullying behavior, incidents of which cast a heavy shadow on relationships between residents,” a statement reads.
