On 22 October 2014, a Palestinian rammed his car into a crowd of people waiting at a light rail station in Jerusalem, Israel. The attack killed a three-month-old girl and a 22-year-old Ecuadorian convert to Judaism, and injured seven others. Police shot the driver of the vehicle as he fled the scene and he later died of his wounds.

Attack

A 21 year old terrorist, Adbel-Rahman Shaloudi, from the Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan deliberately drove his father's car at high speed into the crowd waiting at a Jerusalem light rail station. Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld confirmed that, "this was a terrorist attack. The driver ... is a resident of Silwan and has a terrorist background. He has served time in jail for terror activity." The terrorist was shot dead as he attempted to flee the scene.

Victims

22-year-old Karen Mosquera, a recent immigrant from Ecuador and a convert to Judaism, was critically injured and died on October 26. Her mother and sister traveled to Jerusalem to be with her in the hospital, her father joined them for the funeral.

3-month-old Chaya Zissel Braun, who held both American and Israeli citizenship.

Part of a trend

The attack is one in a series of violent Palestinian attacks on civilians in the summer and fall of 2014 being described by some as a new intifada.
