Police have arrested a motorcyclist suspected of fatally shooting two men on Route 443, north of Modi’in.

The assailant’s gunfire also wounded two others, who are currently being shuttled to nearby hospitals with severe injuries, paramedics say.

Police chief Danny Levy is currently on his way to the scene of the shooting, which law enforcement believes is linked to a “violent dispute in the Arab sector.”
