The Palestinian Authority security forces have arrested a suspect who allegedly sold two terrorists the vehicle they used in yesterday’s deadly Hebron area attack, the Israel Hayom daily reports, citing a Palestinian source.
The source says the PA received intelligence on the matter and its forces arrested the suspect last evening. The suspect, who owns a scrapyard in the southern West Bank, admitted during a subsequent interrogation that he sold the terrorists the vehicle.
