An indictment was filed Sunday against three Jerusalem residents for throwing stones at haredi protesters from a hotel rooftop, according to N12. The incident adds to a string of clashes between protesters and counter-demonstrators in the capital. As The Zioneer reported earlier Sunday, three Jerusalem residents were arrested on similar suspicion. The new indictment formalizes charges: one of the accused, an armed security guard employed at the hotel, allegedly opened the roof access door, allowed two others up, and stood by as they hurled stones. The guard did not act to stop them or report the incident, the indictment states. The case remains at the indictment stage; no trial date has been set.
