Four people were hurt Saturday night in a Palestinian Authority terrorist ramming attack in the Al Fawar section of Mount Hebron.

The terrorist rammed his vehicle into one person, but during the attack, a civilian vehicle carrying Jewish passengers was hit by gunfire as it passed by. One adult in the car sustained minor shrapnel wounds, and a second adult and a child suffered severe anxiety. They continued driving to the Jewish community of Otniel, where the injured man received medical treatment, according to Hatzalah Without Borders.

The terrorist escaped.

Israeli military forces evacuated the wounded victim in an armored personnel carrier to nearby Soroka Medical Center in Be’er Sheva.

IDF troops launched a search to locate the terrorist and his vehicle.
