Several West Bank crossings closed as security forces search for perpetrator of suspected car-ramming

Police have launched a manhunt for the perpetrator of a suspected car-ramming attack in central Israel.

Security forces have closed crossings into the West Bank in the area, including the road leading to Tulkarem, as they pursue the suspect, according to a military official. A police helicopter is also aiding in the searches.

Six people were injured in the hit-and-run near Kfar Yona, including two with moderate injuries, paramedics say.

Police chief Danny Levy is en route to the scene of the ramming where he will conduct a situational assessment, police say.
