(KTLA) – The Ventura County Sheriff’s Office has made an arrest in the death of a Jewish man who died after an alleged altercation with a pro-Palestinian demonstrator in California.
Loay Abdelfattah Alnaji, 50, of Moorpark, was arrested Thursday morning on a charge of involuntary manslaughter, the VCSO said in a news release. He is being held in lieu of $1 million bail.
Authorities say Paul Kessler, 69, died from a severe head injury after an altercation with Alnaji during dueling protests on Nov 5 in Thousand Oaks, California.
After the incident, the Jewish Federation of Los Angeles said Kessler was “struck in the head by a megaphone wielded by a pro-Palestinian protestor.”
Video showed him lying on the ground suffering from a head wound. He was transported to a hospital where he died the next day.
