Investigation into Jewish man's death amid dueling California rallies reveals conflicting accounts

Conflicting accounts complicate the investigation into the death of a Jewish man, Paul Kessler, who was injured during dueling Israeli and Palestinian rallies in California. The suspect in the confrontation called 911 for medical help and has been cooperative, but authorities have not identified the suspect or classified the incident as a hate crime. Witnesses provided conflicting statements about the altercation, and the cause of death was determined to be a blunt force head injury. The FBI is in communication with the sheriff's office, and increased patrols will be conducted around mosques, Muslim community centers, and Jewish community centers. Local officials urge patience and caution as the investigation unfolds.
