People stabbed at gay pride parade

An Ultra-Orthodox Jewish man lunged into a group of revelers at Jerusalem’s annual gay pride parade and stabbed six people Thursday evening as they marched in the holy city, Israeli police and witnesses said. The man had recently been released from prison after serving a sentence for stabbing several people at a gay pride parade in 2005, police spokeswoman Luba Samri said. Samri said the attacker, Yishai Schlissel, was arrested. Eli Bin of Israel’s emergency service said six young people were wounded in the attack, two of them seriously.
