American Hurt in 2003 Hamas Bombing Dies of Wounds
(AP) A U.S. citizen seriously injured in a Palestinian suicide bombing seven years ago has died as a result of complications from his wounds. Julie Averbach says her husband, 44-year-old New Jersey native Steve Averbach, died on Thursday. A Hamas suicide bomber killed seven people and wounded 20 when he detonated his explosives on a packed commuter bus in Jerusalem in May 2003. Averbach was hit by shrapnel and paralyzed from the neck down.
