Police say the two terrorists who opened fire at people at the entrance to Jerusalem were “neutralized” by security forces and an armed civilian.

According to police, the pair got out of a car at around 7:40 a.m. and began to open fire at a bus stop, killing one and wounding eight others.

The attackers’ identities are not immediately given, but some Hebrew media reports say they are from East Jerusalem.

Police say officers are scanning the area to rule out any additional attackers.
