A policewoman is moderately hurt in a suspected car-ramming incident near the town of Carmit in southern Israel, police and medics say.
According to police, officers signaled to a suspicious vehicle to stop, and then it rammed into the policewoman.
The Magen David Adom ambulance service says it is taking the 22-year-old to Soroka hospital in Beersheba.
The driver apparently fled the scene.
