Wednesday marked a terrifying day for one Studio City family.
Officials with the Los Angeles Police Department said they received a call from the homeowner around 5:25 a.m. stating someone was inside their home, located near the intersection of Ventura and Laurel Canyon boulevards. The caller added they were locked in a room with four children after a man broke into their home.
A short time later, the caller placed a second 911 call and informed authorities the suspect threatened to kill them because they were Israeli. The victims are Jewish, but it’s unclear where they originated from.
The LAPD said the family was visibly shaken up. However, there were no physical injuries to the victims.
Officials at the scene believed the suspect may have been under the influence of drugs. He was dressed in his undergarments at the time of his arrest. As he was taken into custody, he was heard yelling, “free Palestine,” over and over.
The name of the suspect has not been released and the investigation is ongoing.
“The vile act of hate that took place this morning has no place in our City. In the wake of the terror and violence inflicted over the previous weeks, this is one of the worst fears of Jewish families across our country – hatred spilling across the threshold, destroying the sense of safety and sanctuary in a home,” Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said in a statement.
The statement continued to say, “We remain steadfast in support of the Jewish people – the people of Los Angeles will not cower to hate. We will respond to it. The Los Angeles Police Department will continue to conduct increased patrols in communities throughout our City and I call on officials to take action to ensure the person responsible for this heinous act is held fully accountable. We will always stand together.”
The LAPD wants to reassure the Jewish community this was an isolated incident.
There are no CIVILIANS in gaza, its a terrorist farm
Are you high? There are plenty of innocents in Gaza. That’s like saying Israelis are all the government or Muslims in America are all Al Quad-a. Hey wait, maybe you believe that latter one. Your biases are showing. If racism against Jews bothers you, maybe afford others the same human decency.
But i highly doubt any of the humanitarian aid will go to the few that don’t believe in killing or working for jews in order to give detailed maps of every Jewish home to hamas
On which street in Gaza can a yid walk on safely?
In what planet do you live ? Are you a troll of Palestine in a frum page ? What innocent ppl celebrate every tragedy against Jews , brainwashed toddlers to hate and terrorist calling parents to give them terrorist nachas after killing 10 Jews , don’t play to King Saul more merciful than Hashem . While some might be in innocents most are committed to hate and destruction of Jews .
The “10 Jews” phone call was a Hamas terrorist. There are hardly 1.5 million Gazans dancing when Jews are killed. I was responding to a comment that said “there are no civilians in Gaza.” So yes, I believe there are civilians in Gaza. People who want nothing to do with violence and wish they lived somewhere else. C’mon people. Do better.
It’s unfortunate that there are few ‘decent’ ones living among the monsters disguised as humans.
to all surprised readers: Don’t be fooled. there are non Jewish readers/commenters on this site. for all you know the above comment was written by a non Jewish pro palistinian..
Buy a firearm.
You aren’t allowed to shoot someone until shot at first…
They sell for $15 at Amazon an electric water gun. Just put the pepper spray instead of the water
KEEP AWAY OF CHILDREN!!
DO NOT attempt this! You cannot fill a container with pepper spray. That’s like trying to fill a container with spray paint or hair spray. It’s under pressure and you WILL be exposed to it yourself.
We need to aggressively get rid of this rabid infestation
Agreed!!
Send him to Gaza
HASHEM YISHMOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ad Masai??!!
