On Shabbos morning the Israeli Police began a crime prevention initiative in Givat Shmuel, during which they noticed a vehicle escaping the checkpoint they set up at the exit to Givat Shmuel. The police gave chase after the vehicle while calling to the vehicle to stop numerous times.
During the chase the car entered highway 4 at the Eim Hamoshavot Interchange against the flow of traffic. The car narrowly avoided hitting the cat opposite him which caused the police car to collide with a civilian vehicle. There were a number of injuries.
In the afternoon the driver, a 52 year old resident of Beit Lechem turned himself in to the police.
MDA paramedic, Avichai Chadad, who treated the injured reports: “We are talking about a difficult accident. There were two cars on the shoulder of the road. In one car we found a 40 year old seriously injured woman with a head injury. We gave her first aid and evacuated her to Beilinson under sedation and mechanical ventilation. The 55 year old man with her in the car was moderately wounded and also taken to Beilinson hospital with injuries to his lower extremities. There were two wounded in the other vehicle, a moderately wounded 25 year old man who was taken to Beilinson, and a lightly wounded male who was taken to Hasharon hospital.
