Police on Wednesday, May 16, 2019, arrested a suspected who allegedly broke into shuls in the southern district, making off with hundreds of shekels. He was taken for a remand hearing on Thursday.

Two weeks ago, police received a report of a break-in and theft in a shul, and an investigation was launched. That investigation led to the arrest of a 20-year-old Jerusalem man. No additional information is provided at this time.
