Police say no fear of terrorist on loose in Ma’ale Adumim

Police are now assessing that the incident in Ma’ale Adumim was not a terrorist infiltration.

“After an initial investigation there is no suspicion of hostile terrorist action,” an Israel Police spokeswoman says.

“It was likely a criminal incident — a burglar who fled after he was surprised by the house owner. Large forces are searching for the suspect,” she adds.
