A female Border Guard officer was attacked by an Arab teen carrying a sword in east Jerusalem, who stole her weapon.
Police officers nearby apprehended the teen, after which his friends began to pelt them with stones, but injured only each other.
The officer noticed the teen walking on Salah a-Din Street and asked him what he was doing with a sword. In response the teen attacked her, tried to kick her, and made off with her rifle.
The officer sustained light injuries when she fought the assailant, and did not require hospitalization.
Police officers nearby succeeded in capturing the suspect and his brother, who was also present, but the violence escalated when more teens arrived and began to throw stones, injuring each other in the process.
Additional police forces arrived on the scene and dispersed the rioters, after which the suspect and his brother were taken in for questioning.
