According to preliminary results of the investigation by the Israeli police, the Palestinian in question had been given a lift by a family. An Israeli civilian who was on site has shot him in the leg as he tried to flee, the army said.
The couple and their four children were slightly injured. The Palestinian also tried to attack the family man with a screwdriver, according to the IDF.
The incident occurred near a checkpoint south of Jerusalem, near a large group of Jewish settlements.
The attack, which was not claimed for now occurs in a context of reinforced tensions between Israelis and Palestinians.
Clashes broke out again in Hebron between Palestinian youths and the Israeli army Ziad Abu Ein, while a Palestinian minister died Wednesday after an altercation with the soldiers of the Jewish state. A soldier grabbed him by the throat, causing a heart attack, according to an Israeli official who attended the autopsy of the Palestinian official.
