By David Isaac, World Israel NewsAfter a young girl was stabbed at a bus stop on Jan. 9 and an elderly couple was found dead in their apartment on Monday on the same street, the feeling among residents in the Armon Hanatziv neighborhood of Jerusalem is “panic,” according to daily newspaper Israel Hayom.Police and security forces, including Jerusalem District Commander Yoram Halevi, descended on the neighborhood Monday morning after the grisly discovery of the bodies of Yehuda and Tamar Kaduri, both in their 70s.Although Armon Hanatziv, also known as East Talpiot, lies near Palestinian villages and has seen terrorist incidents in the past, the two events have undermined residents’ feeling of security.“We are afraid. First the attempted stabbing of the girl last week, and now this murder in a quiet street. There never was such a thing,” a neighbor of the dead couple told Israel Hayom. “We feel that they [the police] are trying to sweep and hide the attack that was here last week so as not to cause panic, but at the end of the day there is a girl who is traumatized and a neighborhood that is in panic. ”Read Israeli police thwart large ammo transfer to Samaria terroristsThe bodies of Tamar and Yehuda Kaduri showed signs of violence, including stab wounds, according to police, who suspect a double homicide.
