Settler teens arrested for assaulting Arab bus driver

Two teenagers from the ultra-Orthodox Beitar Illit settlement south of Jerusalem are arrested after assaulting an Arab bus driver.

Police say the pair boarded the bus intoxicated, refused to pay, and when they heard the driver speak Arabic, began cursing at him.

Upon getting off of the bus, the teens threw stones at the driver, injuring him and causing damage to the bus, police say.
