- INJURED. Ed Koch, 66, former mayor of New York City, by a
- stone thrown at him as he strolled with Mayor Teddy Kollek
- through Jerusalem's walled Old City. Koch, who later went to a
- hospital and had nine stitches to close his head wound, insisted
- on finishing his walking tour, saying, "I wasn't going to let
- these bastards, these thugs, have their way." The ex-mayor was
- on a trip to Israel to boost tourism, which has declined because
- of the gulf crisis and increasing Arab-Israeli violence.
