A 44 year old resident of Avtin arrived this morning (Monday), at about 6:00, at the offices of 'Elisra', which deals in developing electronic warfare, on Hayarkon Street in Bnei Brak, jumped over the fence and came to the security position, where he attacked and fought with the security guard for about 40 seconds.
During the struggle, the suspect grabbed the security guard's weapon and fled the scene, leaving his dummy gun in the arena. Very large forces of police set up roadblocks and began widespread searching for the suspect.
The 24 year old security guard, a resident of Petach Tikva, returned fire, wounding the suspect - and he escaped. The security guard hit in the head during the struggle, and evacuated in mild to moderate condition to Ichilov Hospital.
After about an hour and a half of extensive searches by the various units of the police, an Ayalon mall security guard noticed a bleeding man hiding in the bushes.
He reported to the police, and after a short chase, special patrol unit police captured the suspect, a former ISA assistant. He was taken to Ichilov Hospital in mild condition.
