About 200 mourners enraged over the stabbing death of a Jewish seminary student hurled stones at churches and burned Arab-owned cars as the funeral procession crossed the Mount of Olives near the Muslim quarter of Jerusalem’s walled Old City. One person was hurt and four people were arrested, police said. The incident came a day after the death of Eliyahu Amedi, 22, outside the Shuvu Banim seminary. Jerusalem Police Chief Yosef Yehudai said three Palestinians were arrested Saturday and have confessed to the stabbing.
