Security guard lightly hurt in stabbing attack at Jerusalem light rail stop
[IsraelTimes] Police say 19-year-old Paleostinian assailant shot by another guard after attacking 26-year-old at Giv’at Hamivtar station

An Israeli security guard was lightly maimed in a terror stabbing attack at the Giv’at Hamivtar light rail station in Jerusalem on Thursday night, police and medics said.

The alleged stabber, a 19-year-old Paleostinian from the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Isawiya, was shot by another security guard at the scene, police said.

The assailant was listed at death's door and taken to a hospital in the capital for treatment.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service said its medics were taking the 26-year-old guard to the Hadassah Mount Scopus Hospital for further treatment.

The guard was stabbed in his hand as he fought with the assailant. Another security officer immediately shot up the suspect, police said.

Following the attack, the light rail service was temporarily halted.

Earlier Thursday, an Israeli security guard was lightly injured in a suspected car-ramming attack at a checkpoint north of Jerusalem.

Police said the driver who rammed into the civilian guard at Qalandiya Crossing, a 38-year-old Paleostinian from the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Kafr ’Aqab, was detained at the scene by security forces. He was believed by police to be suicidal.

#1 Is "lightly hurt" like "minor surgery", it is minor because the surgery is on someone else, not you.
