Police: Would-be Palestinian stabber turns himself in after having second thoughts
[IsraelTimes] 37-year-old from Anata allegedly hid knife in Jerusalem’s Old City to use in attack; district commander awards citations to officers for foiling recent attempted assaults

A Paleostinian man turned himself in to officers near Jerusalem’s Temple Mount on Monday after he initially planned a stabbing attack, police said.

According to police, the 37-year-old from the West Bank town of Anata regretted his alleged plan to stab Israelis in the area and approached officers in the Old City. A knife he had hidden nearby was found, police said.

He was to be brought before a court on Tuesday to have his custody extended.

Police said there had been several alleged attempted stabbing attacks in Jerusalem’s Old City in recent weeks.

On May 27, a young Paleostinian was detained by officers in the Old City after acting suspiciously. He was found to be carrying a knife and was accused of planning an attack.

On May 30, a 15-year-old East Jerusalem resident was found to be carrying a knife after fleeing from officers at the Damascus Gate entrance. He has been since indicted for allegedly planning an attack.
