Jerusalem – Israeli Parents Who Lost Daughters In Pesticide Poisoning Welcome Baby Boy

Jerusalem – The parents who lost two infant daughters last year in a tragic pesticide poisoning have welcomed a new baby boy.

Shimon and Michal Gross welcomed a healthy baby boy born at Shaare Tzedek Hospital.

The Gross’ two daughters, Yael, age 2, and Avigail, age 4, died last January after an exterminator left the extremely toxic material phosphine in the apartment, poisoning the entire family, including boys Haim Michael Shlomo, 8 years old, and Rephael Yitzchak Isaac, 6 years old, who both survived.

The exterminator, Yossi Barkan, was arrested and the police opened an investigation into the deaths.
