Palestinians throw firebombs at Border Police jeep, soldiers open fire
2014-04-07
[Ynet] Youth who threw Molotov cocktail ignored calls to stop and was shot in the legs; Border Police jeep catches on fire, but soldiers unharmed.

A Molotov cocktail was thrown at a Border Police jeep on route 60 near the village of Huwara in the West Bank on Sunday.

The Border coppers got off the jeep as it caught fire, and started chasing the Paleostinians who threw the Molotov cocktail.

During the chase, one of the Border coppers identified a suspect with another Molotov cocktail, and told him to let go of the Molotov cocktail, while shooting warning shots.

The suspect went on to light up the Molotov cocktail and the Border coppers shot at the Paleostinian's lower body to neutralize him. The suspect, aged 20, was hit in his leg and taken to a nearby Paleostinian hospital in an army ambulance.

None of the Border coppers were maimed in the incident, Police front man Mickey Rosenfeld told AFP.

A source in the Paleostinian security services confirmed the incident and circumstances to AFP.

"A Paleostinian was maimed by an Israeli policeman after throwing Molotov cocktails at an Israeli patrol. Soldiers came out of the jeep and shot him," she said.
