Police think ramming was ‘lone wolf’ attack — report

Police believe the the vehicular ramming in the Jerusalem neighborhood of Armon Hanatziv in which four soldiers were killed was a ‘lone wolf’ attack, Channel 2 news reports.

The initial findings of the investigation show that Fadi al-Qanbar, a resident of the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Jabel Mukaber identified earlier as the driver, acted alone and not part of a terror network.

Visiting the scene of the terror attack, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said earlier that “all signs point to the attacker being an Islamic State supporter,” linking the ramming to similar attacks in Europe.
