"Oppressed" Palestinian Drives His BMW Into Crowd Wounding 15

Via International Herald Tribune:

JERUSALEM: Israel's rescue service says 13 people have been hurt in an attack at a busy Jerusalem intersection. The rescue service said a driver drove his car into a group of people at the intersection.

Police said the driver was shot and killed. Israel Radio said armed civilians killed the driver. He was not immediately identified, but the wording of the police statement indicated it was believed he was a Palestinian.

Ambulances and police units raced to the scene, and rescue services evacuated the wounded to Jerusalem hospitals. Police said 13 people were wounded — two seriously and the others lightly.

Police said the car was a BMW, and it plowed into the group of pedestrians. Witnesses said the car ended up on the sidewalk near the intersection.

AP reports 15 were injured.

Gee I can't wait for Joseph Cohen's next youtube.
