A man was shot after charging at and tackling a pro-Israeli demonstrator during a protest in Newton, Massachusetts. The alleged shooter, identified as Scott Hayes, is expected to face a judge on Friday.
A man was shot after charging at pro- Israel i demonstrators at the intersection of Washington and Harvard streets, the Middlesex County District Attorney's Office said, and the alleged shooter is expected to face a judge Friday.
Investigators said that's when that demonstrator, identified as 47-year-old Scott Hayes of Framingham, allegedly shot the man who tackled him.Authorities shared what they knew several hours after a man was shot, receiving life-threatening injuries, after running at and jumping on a pro-Israeli demonstrator in Newton, Massachusetts, Thursday.
"I hope that whatever unfolded here that everyone's OK and it's daunting to see. It's too — honestly, it's really too bad. I just hope everyone's OK," said Sam O'Brien, witness.It's unclear at this point whether Hayes will claim self-defense. The Anti-Defamation League said early Friday that they are aware of the case and concerned about escalating tensions.
