Eilat Shooter 'Dreamed About Murdering People'

Police have named the gunman who opened fire in an Eilat hotel as 23-year-old William Hershkovitz from New York.

Jewish Agency-sponsored internship brought American William Hershkovitz, who killed one at an Eilat hotel, to Israel.

Police have named the gunman who opened fire in an Eilat hotel on Friday, killing one person, as 23-year-old William Hershkovitz.

The victim of the shooting has been identified as Armando al-Abed, a 33-year-old Arab Israeli from a Christian village in the northern Galilee region.

Hershkovitz, who came to Israel from Poughkeepsie, New York, had worked as a trainee sous-chef at the Leonardo Club Hotel and had recently been dismissed. The victim, Abed, had worked in the hotel as an assistant chef.

Following a deadly shooting incident in Eilat on Friday morning, Jewish Agency chairman Natan Sharansky appointed a panel to examine the processes by which the American gunman was accepted to the "Israel Way" program, formerly known as Oranim, in Eilat.

The 23-year-old shooter from Poughkeepsie, New York, identified as William Hershkovitz, was in Israel as a part of the Israel Way program supported by the Jewish Agency, that brings JEWS from around the world for volunteer work, study and internship.

Police said Hershkovitz was fired from his internship in the hotel kitchen a day before the shooting, which left one person dead and three others suffering from shock.

“A lot of people complained about him to management,” said one participant. "There was something very strange and creepy about his smile, but I never thought he could be aggressive."
