Israeli fabricates attempted Palestinian stabbing attack

A Janitor, 24, working in Jerusalem's Talpiot neighborhood reported Monday that he drove away two Palestinians who tried to stab him. Police investigation reveals however, that this was not another stabbing attack in Jerusalem, but rather a story that the man fabricated for reasons that remain unclear.

The janitor told police that two Palestinian men carrying a knife approached him on the street and tried to stab him. The man picked up a wooden board found nearby and drove them away. Following his report local police scoured the area in attempt to find the attackers.

A Parks Authority inspector on Sunday foiled an attempted stabbing attack near "Yad Avshalom" in East Jerusalem. The inspector noticed a Palestinian approaching him with a knife, apprehended him and called the police. In addition, just last Thursday a Palestinian stabbed and killed 86-year-old Avraham Ozeri in a lethal terror act in Jerusalem's Gilo neighborhood and seriously wounded a policeman.
