Meir Mandelair resident of Shavei Shomron, 71, who was at the hitchhiking station of the settlement of Kedumim, was hit by gunfire from a passing Palestinian car and injured in his leg. He was taken in an easy condition to Meir Hospital in Kfar Saba. All axes in the area were blocked to traffic.
Large forces of Police officials and IDF are looking for the shooters.
"I feel great and everything's fine," said Mandelair to Walla. "Right now I'm in interrogation by security forces in the hospital." He added: "I just hope they catch the scoundrel and the Palestinian Authority will not let him get away."
Oren Adi, paramedic of Ichud Hatzala, said: "This is a resident of a nearby community, who was shot - when he was at the station – from a passing vehicle which escaped. I Myself and other medics of Ichud Hatzala of the Shomron branch gave him initial medical treatment after being injured in his leg. Military and police forces are working to locate the shooters and checking the circumstances. "
Boaz Cohen, 17, from the settlement of Kedumim who witnessed the attack told Sheria Diamant from Tatzpit agency about the sequence of events.
Hananel Dorani, head of the local council earlier addressed the shooting attack and said: "In light of recent events I went to division commander with a request to increase the security on the roads of Samaria and to act with a stronger hand against the terrorists."
Shomron Council head Gershon Mesika said: "We must stop the lawlessness on the roads. I call on the incoming Defense Minister to convene an emergency discussion and stop the terrorism that the PA is trying to renew on the roads of Judea and Samaria."
Series of ongoing events
The shooting event this morning came in continuation of a series of terrorist incidents: last weekend Arab terrorists threw stones at a bus and private car traveling on the road. As a result, the vehicle veered off course and crashed into a truck parked on the side, and four passengers were injured.
Bus no. 186 of the Afikim company - along with the car, were on their way on Highway 5 near Ariel, where they sustained a barrage of stones, followed by the slight injury of the bus driver, the baby Adele Biton who was in private car suffered a fatal blow, her mother Edva and two girls aged 4 and 6 who were also in the car – were moderately injured.
Yesterday (Sunday) Rabbi Chaim Navon, Rav of Hashimshoni community in Modiin and well known speaker, said that he was attacked with stones by Arabs.
In his Facebook page the Rabbi wrote: "On Saturday night, while driving down Highway 443 to an event in Jerusalem. A loud thumping sound. The window shattered. I got a rock. By the grace of G-d, "the bin broke and we escaped."
He said the police investigator told him that he was not the first.
