A knife-wielding 18-year-old Arab, who infiltrated into the community of Beit-El on Friday night, was shot and killed by the town\'s security chief, Yehuda Dana. The Arab managed to stab Dana before he was killed. Dana was taken to a Jerusalem hospital where he underwent surgery and is listed in good condition.
The Arab, who had come from the nearby village of Dura-al-Kara managed to cut through the community\'s security fence. He then knocked and rang the doorbell of one of the houses trying to get residents to answer the door. The residents of the home became suspicious and notified security personnel. Security Chief Dana arrived on the scene and struggled with the Arab at which point he was stabbed. Residents were asked to remain in their homes as security personnel combed the area for more potential infiltrators.
