The 46-year-old victim said two officials in the mosque accused him of stealing jars of money from the house of worship after morning prayers on Monday.
The officials, described in police reports as the mosque’s imam and amir, dragged the victim to the rear of the mosque, and attempted to chop off his hand with a machete, according to a police statement.
He sustained a severe laceration to his right wrist, and was transported to a nearby hospital by medics.
Officers served a search warrant on Thursday on the mosque, located in a house in the city’s Overbrook section, where they arrested Merv Mitchell, also known as Mabul Shoatz. They recovered a 2-foot-long machete from the scene.
The mosque’s imam, an unidentified 35-year-old male, has not yet been located, police said.
Mitchell was charged with aggravated assault, criminal conspiracy, simple assault, reckless endangerment, and related offenses.
ANIMALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s Sharia law!
A religion based on incredibility of hate is not hands for good reflection. This entire moslem world in its essence is crime on its own side and a side on its own crime. They want no liberty, no friendship and no fortune. They want Money, Crime and Incomplete Compassion. Allah the Compassionate is really allah the weak and unruly. This is a complete fabrication of human suffering for the sake of a crime against only the idea that their allah can be the laugh of the party. I want no part of a crime scene in my eternal rewards. How horrible and how Fascist. A criminal work for a criminal hope without a shred of decency. And that folks, I give you Islam by the worse. Never Again.
Just a nice, religious Moslem boy
We all need to readjust our narrow Western mindset and embrace other cultures.
Coming to a a wall mart near you, the Muslims are taking over.
They learned scripture but not Perek “HaChovel b’chaveiro'”. “yad means mamon.” That’s their problem.
Maybe they should be reminded that they are not in an Arab country. They are in the USA. If they have Green cards, they might have to be deported or face time in jail, or both!
they are not arabs these are the black muslims
