A 51-year-old Israeli passenger was injured by a stray bullet fired from a rather bizarre location: Qalqiliya's high school.
Students celebrating the conclusion of their matriculation exams fired bullet rounds in the air in jubilation, but little did they know that one bullet would end up piercing the window of an Israeli car driving on Road 6 and injuring a passenger.
The car's driver heard bullet fire while driving northbound and stopped to inspect the damage to his window only to find that his passenger had been lightly injured in the chest.
The passenger received emergency treatment by paramedics who rushed to the scene and was later transferred to the Beilinson Medical Center in Petah Tikva.
Shortly before the incident, the police and IDF received reports that students in the West Bank city were firing live ammunition in the air, ruling out the possibility of a terror attack.
