Three Arabs got into a MDA ambulance parked on the sidewalk on Bar Kochba Street in Bnei Brak, attempting to carjack the vehicle from the MDA driver. The driver�s calm actions led to their apprehension, which involved members of the local Shomrim organization.

The assailants fled but the driver alerted the Shomrim and the three were apprehended after a short chase. The three were handed over to police. Police are not ruling out they wanted to use the ambulance for a terror attack.
