Pruss arrived in Isawiya to provide service to an Arab man who had purchased a washing machine from the electrical appliance company he works for, Elran.
'I went into [Isawiya], I got to the house, I fixed the washing machine, and I started to head home,' he recalled in an interview with Arutz Sheva's Hebrew-language news service. 'When I walked out of the house, Arabs from the village, who had been waiting to ambush me, fell on me and began to attack.'"
