According to a police statement, Haifa station officers launched an investigation last night following a report from medical personnel about a roughly 70-year-old man found injured with a head wound and severe signs of violence on HaMeginim Street in Haifa.

Officers who arrived at the scene promptly began swift investigative actions and evidence collection. They were able to trace the suspects and gather information about the event quickly. The background and circumstances of the incident are still under investigation.

The suspects were detained for questioning at the Haifa station and have been imprisoned. Today, based on the needs and findings of the investigation, the police will request an extension of their detention at the Haifa Magistrate's Court.
