The Haifa District Attorney's Office filed a serious indictment against an adult and a minor from Umm al-Fahm for launching a flare at a moving vehicle on Highway 65. The incident occurred about two weeks ago in the evening, when a vehicle containing several suspects pulled up next to a private car and one of them launched a flare at it while driving, creating a real danger to the passengers and other road users. Police officers from the Umm al-Fahm station, with the assistance of tactical unit fighters, located and arrested the suspects within a short time. Their detention was extended from time to time, and at the end of the investigation an evidentiary basis was established. Alongside the indictment, a request was filed for detention until the end of proceedings and a request for confiscation of the vehicle used to commit the offense.
