A man was found stabbed to death in an apartment in central Tel Aviv
about a block from Dizengoff center on Monday morning.
The victim, a 39-year-old single man who police described as "an
Israeli citizen of Armenian origin", was found with stab wounds across
his upper body, after he had been attacked by someone wielding a
pair of scissors. One of the wounds was to the man's throat, causing
his death.
The victim was known to Tel Aviv police, and had been arrested a few
months earlier for selling "kiosk drugs". He was not however a major
police target or organized crime figure they added.
Police believe that the man was killed by someone he knew. There was no
sign of a forced entry and there is every indication that the killer
was let into the apartment by the victim and that at some point not
long after an argument broke out, during which the victim was murdered.
Police said Monday afternoon that a special task force from the Yarkon
subdistrict has been tasked with solving the murder but that so far
no arrests have been made.
