Update: 1 Injured in Hit & Run on Highway 443

One IDF soldier was lightly injured Tuesday afternoon in a hit-and-run by an Arab vehicle on Highway 443, the old Tel Aviv-Jerusalem highway.

The ramming attack took place between Modiin and Jerusalem, at the entrance to Beit Ura Atachta - right next to Beit Horon, the scene of yesterday's terror attack. 

The attacker managed to escape in the vehicle after striking the soldier in the chest.

The IDF believes it was not a terror attack, but rather criminal, as the driver wanted to avoid getting stopped at the roadblock.
