In November, The Gateway Pundit reported that an Orthodox Jewish man was shot and injured on his way to synagogue in the heavily Orthodox Jewish West Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago.
The attacker screamed “Allahu Akbar” before shooting the man leaving him critically injured.
Terrifying moment captured on camera:

Although authorities were initially quiet on the shooter’s immigration status as well as his motive, the shooter, Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi, a 22-year-old from the northwest African country of Mauritania, was in America illegally.
When first responders arrived on the scene, Abdallahi, who initially fled, allegedly returned and opened on those trying to aid the victim. Police returned the fire injuring Abdallahi, who was then arrested.
Fox 32 reports that on Saturday, Abdallahi was found dead in his cell of apparent suicide.
Jail staff discovered Abdallahi during routine security checks that were conducted at 3:30 p.m. Saturday.
Staff members attempted life-saving measures, and Abdallahi was transported to Mt. Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, the sheriff’s office said. There was no evidence of foul play.
The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office is conducting an autopsy to determine the cause and manner of Abdallahi’s death.
Abdallahi was facing multiple charges, including terrorism, a hate crime, six counts of attempted first-degree murder, and seven counts of aggravated discharge of a firearm at a police officer or firefighter.
The victim was treated at an area hospital and ultimately released.
Update: The North African Muslim illegal migrant accused of shooting a Chicago Jewish man in an Islamic terror attack has been found dead in the Cook County jail, apparently from a hanging. Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi shouted praise for Allah during the shooting. https://t.co/wufkj6nScw pic.twitter.com/MVKARI6JSq
