Kalman Marco, the 60 year old man who was driving near Ofra Thursday morning when his car was shot at, says he was was miraculously saved when he managed to get to work safely. In an interview, the Nili resident said that he was unaware that the car was hit until he got out of the car in Psagot, where he works, and he saw that a bullet had hit the car.

Marco informed the IDF of the incident and soldiers began a search for the culprits. During the search, they discovered nine bullet arrays for Kalashnikov rifles. The terrorist attackers escaped into the neighboring Arab village of Ein Yabrod.
