Police arrest two drivers on suspicion of ramming into a crowd of Haredi anti-draft protesters in Bnei Brak this evening.
One of the cars that was stuck in traffic caused by the demonstration on Route 4 drives at a high speed into the crowd, moderately injuring a 16-year-old, police say.
Officers at the scene chase after the driver, a 24-year-old resident of Bnei Brak, and arrest him.
Police add that they managed to stop a motorcyclist from driving into the crowd later on. They detain the driver, a 37-year-old resident of Herzliya.
Both are transferred for questioning at a nearby police station.
