JERUSALEM – A Palestinian wounded at least 5 passengers in a stabbing rampage on a Tel Aviv bus on Wednesday, January 21, before being shot by a passing prison officer, Israeli police said.
The attacker struck in the morning rush hour in the heart of Israel’s largest city, police spokeswoman Luba Samri said.
Five people were moderately to seriously wounded, while 4 were slightly injured, she said, citing emergency services at the scene.
It was not immediately clear if all the casualties had been stabbed or if they included some suffering from shock.
“The suspect is a 23-year-old Palestinian from (the West Bank town of) Tulkarem,” Samri said.
“The attacker was foiled by an officer from the prisons service who shot and wounded him in the leg.
“Police arrested the terrorist. He was taken to hospital and for further interrogation,” she added. – Rappler.com
