Paul Kessler, the 69-year-old killed, died from “injuries sustained during an altercation at a Pro-Israeli/Pro-Palestinian event” in Thousand Oaks, California, Monday afternoon, the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office told the Daily Caller. The Ventura County Medical Examiner’s Office deemed the manner of Kessler’s death a homicide.
NBC News initially headlined its report on Kessler’s death as “Man dies after hitting head during Israel and Palestinian rallies in California, officials say,” according to an archived version of the report. It later changed the headline to read, “Jewish man killed in altercation at dueling pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian rallies in California.”
