Stabbing Attack at Jerusalem Central Bus Station
- 9 years ago
One person has been wounded in a terrorist stabbing attack just outside Jerusalem's central bus station.
The terrorist began his attack by stabbing a 70-year-old Jewish woman, leaving her with moderate-to-serious wounds.
A Yassam police officer spotted the attack and ran towards the terrorist, shooting and neutralizing him before he could continue his attack.
Acting on claims by witnesses of a possible second armed terrorist, dozens of police then poured into the bus station.
Forces then diverted their search in the direction of the Geula neighborhood, after receiving additional intelligence.
