Plea deal close for Givat Zeev stabber — report

Prosecutors are working on a plea deal for a teen terrorist involved in an attack in the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Pisgat Zeev in October, in which two people were seriously injured.

Ahmed Manasra was 13 when he carried out the attack with his cousin, Hassan Manasra, who was shot and killed as he charged at police with a knife.

The deal would sea Manasra, who cannot be sentenced to a life term for attempted murder because of his age, plead guilty to a lesser charge, according to a Channel 10 report.

A 13-year-old Israeli boy and a 25-year-old man were both seriously injured in the attack.
