A man was arrested in the center of Jerusalem on Friday afternoon after a brief manhunt that brought the light rail to a halt.
Reports suggest the suspect was about to carry out an attack.
Light rail service in the area between Central Station and Damascus Gate was briefly shut down as Israeli police searched the area.
Videos posted to social media showed Israel’s elite counterterrorism Yamam unit heavily armed while operating in the area.
The suspect was later spotted on Hanaviyim Street off of Yaffo and was detained. An investigation is underway.

Thank you to the brave soldiers who risk their lives so we can walk safely on the streets of Jerusalem
Now give him free education
Free room and board
Cable TV ….
And let the Supreme Court Eloyahi let him go in a relative short time to the public with more knowledge on how to murder Jews.
Thank you to the Anarchist Lapid
כל הכבוד לצה”ל
and border police
G-d Bless our soldiers…….
Reiven: seems to me that with free education, free room and board and cable TV, the guy would want to stay in Israel as long as possible. He probably doesn’t have any of that in some dusty Arab village he calls home.
