The suspect, a 25-year-old man from Hebron, is detained by cops near the Temple Mount for suspicious behavior, police say. Once in custody, he confesses to purchasing a knife and says he planned to stab Jewish civilians.
He leads police to Damascus Gate, and shows them a backpack he hid in the bushes, which contains knives and screwdrivers.
