    Old City Arab indicted for attempted stabbing attack

    Jerusalem prosecutors filed charges against Yusuf Rajabi, an 18-year-old Arab from Jerusalem’s Old City, for attempted murder and possession of a knife.

    According to the charges, the suspect took a knife from his home kitchen and headed to the light rail station near Jerusalem’s Central Bus Station, where he searched for a group of IDF soldiers in an attempt to stab them.  A light rail security guard noticed the suspect, asked the suspect to open his coat and exposed the knife.
