A police bomb squad member on his way to work encountered an Arab driver on the shoulder in the area of Route 5 via Route 4, instructing the vehicle to stop.

The driver ignored the police officer’s instructions, continuing on his way, with the policeman in pursuit. He called for backup and when they reached Coca Cola Junction, the policeman fired five shots. The vehicle entered Bnei Brak and was apprehended in the neighborhood as there was a large police force involved in the pursuit at that time.
