Protest Breaks Out Near Ramat Shlomo Due To Mistaken Report Of Ben Yeshiva’s Arrest

A traffic citation issued to a young Chareidi man near the Ramat Shlomo neighborhood in Jerusalem sparked a protest and temporary road closure Tuesday morning after bystanders mistakenly believed police were attempting to arrest a draft evader.

According to reports from the scene, a police officer stopped a Chareidi driver at the entrance to the neighborhood in order to issue a traffic ticket.

However, Chareidi passersby assumed that the police were arresting a draft evader and alerted the “The Kidnappers Have Arrived” alert system. Chareidim flocked to the area and blocked the road.

It later emerged that the driver was not arrested, and it is unclear whether he was even classified as a draft evader.
