Adam's resident Daniel Nadav described the chain of events saying, "I saw sharp movements, and at first I thought it was a neighbors' feud. And then I saw a man running towards me being chased by a terrorist, which made me realize this was a security incident."

 

"The terrorist saw me and started to run after me. I escaped, and he realized he doesn't stand a chance," he recalled.

 

"He stabbed two people and attempted to stab the third one, who neutralized him," he added.
