Gunman Acted Alone

JERUSALEM -- An inquiry commission found that Jewish settler Baruch Goldstein acted alone when he killed Moslem worshipers in February's Hebron mosque massacre, Israeli dailies reported Friday. Testimony by Palestinian witnesses and some Israeli army guards had suggested that there was a second gunman or that Goldstein had an accomplice in the Feb. 25 bloodbath at the Tomb of the Patriarchs. Thirty Moslem worshippers died and scores were wounded at a site sacred to Moslems and Jews before the crowd killed Goldstein. The five-member commission is to publish its findings Sunday, but the contents of the report have already been leaked extensively.
