    BETHLEHEM (Ma’an) — A Palestinian was shot and killed near the illegal Israeli settlement of Kfar Adumim in the central occupied West Bank on Sunday, after the Palestinian, driving a taxi, ran into another car on a main road, an Israeli police spokesperson said.

    Micky Rosenfeld said after the car incident, a Palestinian in a Palestinian taxi “walked out his vehicle with a knife in his hand and was shot dead.”

    Rosenfeld said he was not aware whether the Palestinian was shot by a civilian or by Israeli forces. He added that the area had been cordoned off, without adding further detail.

    It is unclear if the car crash was an attack or an accident, however following the incident, an Israeli settler said the Palestinian exited the car wielding a knife. Hebrew media reported an Israeli settler then shot the Palestinian dead at the scene.

    Israeli sources identified the Palestinian as Shadi Hassib , 32, from al-Bireh city, near Ramallah. [ Updated: Nov. 22, 2015 12:53 P.M.]

    Israeli news site Ynet reported that the Israeli settler “was lightly wounded, suffering a scratch to his hand,” adding that it was unclear whether the scratch came from the car crash or the alleged attempted stabbing attack.
