Michigan: As the Israeli offensive against Hamas intensified, the president of a synagogue in Detroit was stabbed outside her home on Saturday morning. According to media reports, Samantha Woll (40), the president of the board of the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue in Downtown Detroit was found dead with multiple wounds on his body.
Witnesses at the scene promptly called the police. Law enforcement believes the crime occurred inside her home. As of now, the police have not determined the motive behind the killing. Media reports suggest that the case has been assigned to the homicide unit for further investigation
Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan said Woll’s death “has left a huge hole in the Detroit community.”
Duggan said in a statement that a few weeks ago he and Woll were celebrating the newly renovated synagogue together. “It was a project she successfully led with great pride and enthusiasm,” CNN quoted Duggan as saying.
“This entire city joins with her family and friends in mourning her tragic death,” he added.
After the terrorist attack by Hamas, there have been protests against Jews in many countries, including the United States. Tragically, Synagogue Board President Samantha Wall was also murdered. Consequently, there is a suspicion that terrorist organizations may be involved in the assassination of the president.
