Prosecutors filed an indictment against Muad Shikha, 21, from Ara, for aggravated assault and illegal knife possession, according to N12. The indictment alleges he attacked a scooter rider, stabbed him six times in the upper body even while the victim was lying on the ground, and shouted curses at him. Bystanders intervened and Shikha fled; the victim was evacuated to Hillel Yaffe Hospital with a collapsed lung and stab wounds.
The indictment, filed at the Haifa District Court, charges Shikha with a violent attack on a scooter rider on the road in Ara. According to the indictment text, the accused stabbed the victim repeatedly even after he fell to the ground, and only the intervention of passersby stopped the attack. The victim suffered a collapsed lung (pneumothorax) and multiple stab wounds. Shikha fled the scene but was later arrested. The case adds to a series of road-rage incidents in Israel recently, but this is a separate event with no known connection to previous cases.
