Accident – Death – Obituary News : Police in California have announced that they have identified a suspect in the death of Paul Kessler, a Jewish man who died following an injury sustained at a pro-Palestinian rally earlier this month. Ventura County Sheriff Jim Fryhoff revealed during a press conference on Tuesday that the suspect is a 50-year-old resident of Moorpark who was advocating for Palestine at the rally, while Kessler was supporting Israel.

The announcement by Fryhoff comes shortly after Kessler passed away from injuries sustained during an altercation at competing pro-Israel and pro-Palestine rallies. The Ventura County Sheriff’s Office released a statement saying, “A 69-year-old man, identified as Paul Kessler, died as a result of injuries sustained during an altercation at a Pro-Israeli / Pro-Palestinian event, both of which were occurring simultaneously at the intersection of Westlake Blvd. and Thousand Oaks Blvd.”

The incident is currently being investigated by the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office, and the possibility of a hate crime has not been ruled out. The Ventura County District Attorney’s Office confirmed that they have not yet received the case from the police.

“At that time, we will begin a thorough process of evaluating the facts and applicable law to determine whether criminal charges will be filed,” said a spokesperson for the district attorney’s office.

During the rallies, an altercation took place between Kessler and another individual, resulting in Kessler falling backward and injuring his head. When the police arrived at the scene, they found the 69-year-old man suffering from a head injury. An autopsy later confirmed that Kessler’s cause of death was a blunt force head injury, and it was ruled a homicide.

As part of the ongoing investigation, a search warrant was executed at the suspect’s home this week. However, the individual has not yet been arrested. Further information regarding the case is currently being sought from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office.
