After stabbing, suspect tussles with officer and tries to grab his gun before being shot at close range, the 9th Palestinian to be killed in West Bank violence in last four days
Graphic footage posted to social media showed a Border Police officer trying to apprehend the suspect as two other Palestinians were trying to pull him free.
An officer managed to pull the alleged stabber away from them in a headlock, but the suspect then briefly freed himself from his grasp and appeared to try and grab the officer’s automatic weapon.
The officer then allowed the weapon to fall to the ground as he pulled a handgun from a holster and fired four times point-blank, killing the suspect. He then retrieved his automatic weapon and appears to call for backup before the video clip ends.
“Oscar Salminen Goes To Kingston For Three Years,” Sault Star. October 24, 1931. Page 2. ---- William Cedar Draws 18 Months; Stabbed Nikki Peera Is Charge ---- Oscar Salminen, 373 Albert Street, West [Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario] was sentenced to three years in Kingston penitentiary when he appeared before Judge F. Stone in the District Court this morning charged with the stabbing of Nikki Peera on the night of August 10. At a previous hearing Salminen pleaded guilty to the charge. William Cedar, 373 Albert Street West, charged with the same offence, was found guilty and was sentenced to 18 months in Burwash Prison.
Rev. I. G. Perkins, Mr. Otto Nenoen and Mr. S. Hainenen, gave evidence as to the good character of both accused. Mr E, V, McMillan, urged that Salminen, who did the actual stabbing, was drunk at the time and that bad companionship was the cause of both men appearing in the dock.
Judge Stone, in giving the sentence, pointed out that Peera had been stabbed when four men set on him at the instigation of a woman. He characterized the beating up and stabbing of Peera as a cowardly thing and pointed out that Salminen and his companions were not too drunk to act on the suggestion of the woman. Salminen was not so intoxicated, Judge Stone said, that he could not formulate the thought of stabbing the complainant and was not so incapable that he was prevented from taking his knife out of his pocket, opening it, and stabbing Peera while he lay in an unconscious condition on the ground.
‘Stabbing must stop,’ Judge Stone said. ‘We did manage to stamp it out, and this is the first case of that nature we have had to deal with in a number of years. I must therefore impose a severe penalty in order to discourage such conditions in the city. You might have just as easily murdered the man, as inflict the wounds you did.’
[AL: Salminen was also known as Salmela. He was 33 at time of conviction, with no previous prison experience, was born in the Kymi municipality (Kyminlinna) and immigrated to Canada in 1920. He was not naturalized as a Canadian citizen, was not literate in English, and the immigration authorities moved to deport him once his prison sentence was complete. He worked in the coal and wood gang at Kingston Penitentiary, and then the outside work crew. He was released and deported to Finland in April 1934.]

At Chassidic Rabbi's Home, Multiple People Stabbed, During Chanukah Celebration
During a Chanukah gathering in the home of Rabbi Chaim L. Rottenberg, in the Forshay neighborhood in Monsey, N.Y., an individual with a scarf covering his face entered just before 10 p.m., brandishing a knife and began stabbing some of the Chassidic Jews gathered for the celebration.
A Chassidic man threw a table at the assailant and chased him from the home.
The attacker then attempted to enter the adjacent synagogue, but was locked out by the people there, who barricaded themselves inside. Five people were stabbed, at least one in critical condition. The assailant fled in a gray car and was reported to have been placed under arrest in New York City two hours later.
The attack comes on the heels of the antisemitic massacre at a kosher grocery in Jersey City on December 10th, and a string of antisemitic attacks in New York City just days before.
People are requested to pray for victims: Yosef ben Perel Chaim ben Vittel Naftali Tzvi ben Gila
