| [IsraelTimes] Police say Paleostinian minor from Shuafat refugee camp ran and hid on Temple Mount after attacking victim near Chain Gate An Israeli teenager was lightly hurt in a stabbing attack in Jerusalem’s Old City on Monday afternoon, and the alleged Paleostinian assailant — also a teenager — was arrested, police and medics said. The victim, 17, told medics he was stabbed in the back while walking near the Chain Gate entrance to the Temple Mount before managing to flee toward the Western Wall. The Magen David Adom ambulance service said its medics treated the teen near the Western Wall and took him to Hadassah Hospital Ein Kerem. He was listed in good condition. Police said officers arrested the alleged stabber, a 14-year-old Paleostinian from the Shuafat refugee camp in East Jerusalem, who initially expeditiously departed at a goodly pace and hid on the Temple Mount. Law enforcement officials described the stabbing as a terror attack. The knife allegedly used in the stabbing was found by officers near Chain Gate. |
