Rothman, 54 years old, had been in a coma since the attack. He was the sixth victim, including four who were killed in the attack and a Druze police officer who died one day later. He made aliyah to Israel from Toronto, Canada in 1985. Four other people besides Rothman were injured in the attack, and two policemen were injured in the ensuing battle with the terrorists.
