An Israeli man is stabbed and lightly wounded in his car south of Jerusalem by a Palestinian assailant, police say.
The victim had taken his car for maintenance at a garage in the village of al-Walaja. As he was driving home, he stopped to pick up a hitchhiker, who he says stabbed in him the arm. His attacker then fled.
Police say they are investigating if the incident was a terror attack.
The Magen David Adom ambulance service says the victim is approximately 40 years old.
He received treatment from MDA medics before being taken to Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center for treatment, the ambulance service says.
