Palestinian car-rammer reportedly visited junction every day over past month
The Palestinian assailant who carried out a ramming attack at separate locations near the West Bank city of Jericho visited the Almog Junction daily over the past month, the Kan public broadcaster reports.
Citing store employees, the report says the assailant would stop and sit in his car for several hours, and was taken to be “weird.”
The broadcaster also says security forces are probing whether there is any connection between the suspect and Udai Tamimi, who carried out a deadly shooting near Jerusalem earlier this month. Following a manhunt, Tamimi was caught while attempting another attack.
