Stolen motorcycle gets traced due to the presence of Chabad bumper stickers
In an unusual incident, a 17-year-old Arab individual from the Palestinian Authority-controlled territories was arrested and taken for questioning at the Shafat station in Israel. The suspect was accused of stealing a motorcycle with Chabad bumper stickers and driving it towards the Hizma checkpoint north of Jerusalem.
The motorcycle, owned by a resident of central Israel, was stopped by officers from the Jerusalem District's Shafat Station for inspection. During the inspection, torn wires and signs of a break-in were noticed on the motorcycle. Upon further investigation, it was discovered that the motorcycle was not legally allowed in Israeli territory due to the lack of a permit for the driver.
According to the suspect, he entered Israel to go to the beach. However, he admitted to meeting people who coaxed him into stealing the motorcycle. The suspect is now facing charges of vehicle theft, conspiracy to commit a crime, driving without a license, and illegal entry into Israel.
The court has granted the police's request and extended the suspect's detention until Tuesday. The specific details of the incident are still under investigation, and more information may be released as the case progresses.
