“And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many were overthrown and wounded, even unto the entering of the gate.”
And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many were slain of Shechem in the entering in of the gate — Abimelech routes Gaal (וַיִּנּוּס, vayanus, Gaal fled). Slaughter occurs at the gate, which should protect the city but becomes a charnel house.
