The family was asleep and unharmed in attack, said police spokeswoman Luba Samri, adding that an investigation was underway. Since mid-September, a wave of Palestinian attacks have killed 19 Israelis and an American student.

Tony Chase, a board member that joined KaloBios in November when Shkreli acquired 70% of the company, has also left the company. The securities fraud charge brought against Shkreli could lead to a prison sentence of 20 years.
Beckham received three personal fouls and was given a one game suspension, with just about everyone agreeing he should have been ejected from the game long before he head-butted Norman in one particularly nasty late-game play.

Nigerian police say they acted to prevent an attack on a police station and only fired tear gas to disperse the crowd. Nigeria’s military said the raids December 12 through December 14 came after Shiites tried to block the convoy of Gen.
For all the complicated questions the Panthers’ possible use of homophobic slurs prompts, the baseball bat situation has a simple solution: No more bats on the field.
An altercation with Ball was caught on video, but clearly wasn’t an excuse for Beckham conducting himself so wildly during the game.
Beckham is not allowed to attend practices or have any contact with the Giants, apart from arrangements for off-site medical procedures or physical therapy, until his reinstatement on Monday.
Multiple reports of Odell Beckham Jr. winning his Wednesday appeal proved to be false.
Giants punter Brad Wing saw the interaction between teammate Odell Beckham Jr. and bat-wielding Panthers safety Marcus Ball before the two teams faced each other Sunday.
“The only thing I’ll say about the incident that occurred the other day in the game…is the fact that to depict this as Odell Beckham being wrong, and the only one wrong, is not right”, Coughlin said. Norman took a swing at Beckham just prior to the helmet-to-helmet hit, before breaking off to try to make a tackle.
Norman ultimately got off light, however, in his battle with Beckham, whose suspension is a huge blow for a Giants team still fighting for a playoff spot.
“If there is something out there that is factual, that there is truth or hard evidence, please present it to us as well so we can act accordingly”, Rivera said.
“I don’t even know if there’s any disciplinary actions for referees, but I think they at least have to have a talking to just to know in future games, you can stop that before it gets to that point”. If his suspension is overturned, Beckham will still likely be hit with a hefty fine. “But there were factors involved, starting in pregame, which are well-documented, which indicates there was an attempt to provoke him”, Coughlin told reporters.
