Israel Police Thwart Terror Attack Involving Stolen Truck


A Palestinian Ramallah resident, aged 39, stole a truck on Thursday night in the coastal city of Holon. The driver was heading towards Rishon Lezion when police were alerted to the theft. The police caught up with the driver near the Beit Dagan intersection where they ordered him to stop. The driver proceeded to ram his truck into a private car and a police cruiser. Police finally managed to stop the truck and apprehend the driver on Moshe Dayan Boulevard in Rishon Lezion.

While being interrogated by police detectives, the driver admitted to stealing the truck in the hopes of committing a ramming attack against soldiers in the area of central Israel. The Palestinian was brought to an arraignment hearing at the municipal court in Tel Aviv. Police are continuing their investigation to determine if there were any accomplices in the incident.
