JERUSALEM (Reuters) - A Palestinian rammed a bulldozer into an Israeli commuter bus, cars and pedestrians on one of Jerusalem’s busiest streets on Wednesday, killing at least three people and wounding dozens, emergency services said.
Police said the driver of the bulldozer was shot dead by police and a soldier who climbed onto the vehicle.
Television footage after the attack showed the highway construction vehicle being pursued by several men, at least one of them in civilian clothes and pointing a pistol. Some of them then crowded into the cab, where a struggle appeared to ensue.
“A bulldozer driven by an Arab went on a rampage on Jaffa Road, hitting pedestrians, buses and cars,” police spokesman Shmuel Ben-Ruby said.
