Israeli forces have entered the West Bank city of Qalqilya to search for Palestinians who allegedly carried out a violent car robbery in the area earlier today.

A military source says violent riots erupted as troops entered Qalqilya. The soldiers returned fire at Palestinians hurling stones, hitting at least one, the source says.

The Israeli man in his 70s, whose car was stolen, is listed in serious condition, medics said.
