Police are investigating light to moderate wounds to the head suffered by a Jew at the hands of an Arab near Beit Horon northwest of Jerusalem Friday morning. A police officer who was in the area saw the resident of the Jerusalem village of A-Tor hit the victim with a crow bar next to a well on the side of Highway 443 between the capital and Modi'in.
The officer caught the suspect and summoned the Maged David Adom emergency service to treat the victim. The background of the attack was not immediately clear.
