Relatives of Palestinian Mohammed Abu Latifa, 19, mourn during his funeral in Qalandiya refugee camp, near the West Bank city of Ramallah July 27, 2015. Abu Latifa, wanted on suspicion of planning a militant attack, fell to his death from a rooftop on Monday as he fled from police in the occupied West Bank, Israeli police said, an account disputed by a witness. A police spokeswoman said Abu Latifa ignored paramilitary police officers' orders to halt and climbed onto a rooftop where police shot him in the lower body to stop him. However, Shahdi Awad, who lives in a neighboring building and who said he saw the incident, told Reuters Abu Latifa was shot dead and had not fallen off the roof. Photo by Shadi Hatem
