Five people have been wounded in a shooting on Dov Yosef Street near the Gilo and Beit Safafa neighborhoods of Jerusalem, the Magen David Adom ambulance service says.
MDA says one of the victims is listed in serious condition, three are in moderate condition, and one is lightly injured.
Police say the background of the shooting appears to be criminal, and not a terror attack. MDA says it appears to be a fight between rival Arab clans.
