Gush Etzion mayor: Security watch shot at terrorist, but he escaped
The mayor of Gush Etzion Regional Council said that Bat Ayin's local security watch squad shot at the terrorist who carried out an attack killing a teen and lightly injuring a 7-year-old boy, but that the terrorist managed to get away.
The mayor said, "The terrorist came in with an axe and injured two boys from Bat Ayin." The mayor noted that no Palestinian workers are employed in the town: "It is clear that the terrorist came in with the intention of murdering and terrorizing. The only way he could have come in was through infiltration." (Yael Levy)
