Friends and family members carry the body of Simcha Chodedtov, the Haredi man who was killed by Israeli security on last Wednesday night, during his funeral ceremony in Jerusalem, on Oct. 25, 2015. Israeli security forces shot dead a Jewish Israeli they had mistaken for a Palestinian attacker in central Jerusalem Wednesday night, police said in a statement. At first, reports alleged that a Palestinian who tried to stab Israelis on a bus on Yirmihau Street in central Jerusalem was shot and killed by security forces, a common occurrence in the month-long violence between Israelis and Palestinians. However, it appeared this time that security forces shot and killed an Israeli Jew they thought to be a Palestinian attacker, Israeli police spokeswoman Luba Samri said in a statement.
