A 16-year-old male was lightly injured in an attempted car ramming attack in the Samarian town of Ofra. Jewish and Arab residents had allegedly been involved in a dispute when an Arab man got into his car and attempted to run them over before escaping.

The military said it received a report about the incident in the Binyamin area and immediately dispatched troops to search the area. The incident appears to have been precipitated by an argument between the two groups of residents.

The man remains at large and a manhunt is underway to catch and detain him.
