Israeli lightly hurt as car is stoned driving into West Bank refugee camp
Man mistakenly drives through Qalandiya checkpoint north of Jerusalem, taken to hospital with minor head injuries
A Jewish Israeli man was lightly wounded on Tuesday when his car was stoned after he accidentally drove into a Palestinian refugee camp in the West Bank, medics said.
The man reportedly accidentally drove through the Qalandiya checkpoint north of Jerusalem and into the Qalandiya camp.
Local residents identified him as Jewish and began throwing rocks and metal bars at his car.
Video posted to the internet showed the man sitting in the vehicle with a smashed windshield.
The Magen David Adom rescue service said it treated the man after he was brought back to the Qalandiya checkpoint and took him to a Jerusalem hospital, suffering from light wounds to his head.
The man apparently managed to turn his vehicle around and drive back to the checkpoint. There was no immediate comment from the police or the military.
