Another Failed Backhoe Terror Attack

If at first you don’t succeed, try again and fail…:

JERUSALEM (CNN) — A man who drove a construction vehicle into a police car and an empty bus on a major road in Jerusalem has been shot and killed, Israeli police and medical services.

Two Israeli policemen sustained minor injuries in the incident, police said. The driver was shot by an Israeli policeman and a taxi driver at the scene, according to a police spokesman and eyewitnesses. He died as he reached a Jerusalem hospital, Israeli medical services said.

The lunatic was shot four times by a taxi driver before police arrived. This guy may have been more crazy than determined as his first target was the police car carrying officers who would eventually seal his fate. This is the latest in a string of construction vehicle attacks, none of which have succeeded in causing the intended chaos or desired results. The attacker has not been identified.
