An Israeli was driving down Route 6 near the security fence, when he was suddenly shot in the chest injuring him seriously, the Jerusalem Post reported. Police said the shots came from the Palestinian territories. Police have set up roadblocks and were searching the area.
Although terrorism is a possibility, police say that a wedding taking place in a nearby Arab village at the time was the likely source of the gunfire – as they include gunfire into the air as a form of celebration.

the story as reported on Ynet is that students in Qalqiliya were celebrating the end of their matriculation exams.
