A 21-year-old man sustained injuries in Bnei Brak in what authorities have classified as a deliberate ramming incident, according to police reports.
The individual behind the wheel, who struck the victim, was apprehended by law enforcement. He has been confirmed as an Arab Israeli citizen.
Preliminary findings indicate that the driver intentionally veered onto the sidewalk and ran down the pedestrian before fleeing the scene. He was eventually intercepted by officers in a nearby underground parking garage.
The victim’s injuries are considered to be minor, with reports indicating harm to his limbs.
Paramedics Yehuda Mor and Yechiel Esterson shared their account: “When we arrived at the scene, we found a pedestrian, a 21-year-old man, suffering from injuries to his limbs and back after being hit by a vehicle driven by a nationalist. Together with rescue medics and paramedics from United Hatzalah and MDA, we provided him with initial medical treatment, including immobilization and dressings, and he is being evacuated in light condition to continue receiving medical treatment in the trauma room at the Mayanei Hayeshua Hospital in the city.”
