YIGAL AMIR SHOOTS PERES

Attorney General Yigal Amir shot former President Shimon Peres at point-blank range on a Tel Aviv street today. As Peres munched on a Tunisian Sandwich, Amir stepped from a taxi and opened fire. Peres was rushed to Sourasky Medical Center, where he was pronounced “stable but untrustworthy” by a hospital spokesperson. Amir was serving a life sentence for slaying PM Yitzhak Rabin when coup leaders freed him and appointed him to the Yisraeli cabinet. He remained in the street after today's incident, chatting with bystanders. “What, you didn’t see this coming?” he repeatedly asked. When no one took him into custody, Amir hailed another taxi and returned to Ayalon Prison. He was placed in the cell he recently vacated.

Amir’s wife, Foreign Minister Larisa Trembovler, said “this changes everything. He’s back in the slammer and I’m in love again. This man knows how to please me.”
