Child taken during West Bank carjacking, found safe

Police receive a report of a car stolen with a young boy inside near the Palestinian village of Nil’in, in the central West Bank.

As the carjacker began driving away with the vehicle, he noticed the 5-year-old in the back seat, police say.

The boy was later found on the side of the road near the Hashmonaim Crossing, where police believe the suspect ordered him out of the car.

The child is said to be safe and sound.

Police and IDF troops are on their way to the scene.
