Police refrain from arresting draft evading yeshiva student at Beit She'an Junction
Police officers attempting to arrest a yeshiva student who had failed to report for military service at Beit She'an Junction encountered resistance from people at the scene, who threatened to stage a protest if the arrest went ahead. Those present warned officers that there would be "chaos" if the student was arrested. Following the confrontation, he was allowed to leave without being taken into custody.
