Israeli occupation government sources said that a (Palestinian) bulldozer driver hit a number of cars at a busy street in downtown Jerusalem City; the sources said that three Israelis were injured in the attack.

Israeli occupation government police said that a security guard opened fire at the bulldozer driver and killed him. Medical sources reported that among those injured there is one critical.

Earlier in July a Palestinian resident of Jerusalem attacked a number of Israeli cars killing three Israelis. He was not known to be affiliated with any Palestinian (resistance) group.

Aljazeera tv reported that the Israeli police identified today's bulldozer driver as a Jerusalemite Palestinian, like the first one early this month.

Nine were treated, one of moderate injury, the rest of light injuries or panicking, sixteen in all.
