An suspected Arab gunman tried to kill an Israeli awaiting a ride at a hitchhiking station in Samaria, not far from Shechem.
The victim was shot in the thigh and moderately wounded. He is being treated in a Petach Tikvah hospital and is expected to recover well.
IDF forces reportedly arrived quickly at the scene of the attack, fanning out to search for the terrorist.
According to at least one local newspaper, the car from which the shot was fired was carrying a large number of weapons
