Herzliya shooting in residential building

On Friday, a 21-year-old resident of Herzliya was arrested on suspicion of involvement in a shooting that occurred in the lobby of a residential building in the city center, according to a police statement. 

When police officers arrived at the scene, they discovered evidence in the lobby consistent with gunfire.

Following their initial investigation, the suspect was located and taken into custody on Friday afternoon.

During the arrest, authorities found a scooter without a license plate near the suspect's location, which they believe may have been used in the shooting.

The suspect is currently being questioned and is expected to appear in court on Saturday evening for a hearing regarding the police's request to extend his detention.

The investigation into the circumstances surrounding the shooting is ongoing.
