A dramatic police chase unfolded on Highway 1 last Friday, resembling a movie scene with sirens, motorcyclists, and officers with drawn handguns. The pursuit involved a 17-year-old Palestinian minor from Hebron who allegedly fled from police in a stolen vehicle. Officers from the Harel station received a report of a suspicious stolen car heading towards Highway 1. Police from the Tzion region quickly set up roadblocks to intercept the suspect. The driver, attempting to evade capture, crashed into a bus at the Sakharov interchange. Police officers, including units from Harel station and Jerusalem's Yassam (special patrol unit), apprehended and handcuffed the suspect. Initial investigations revealed the driver was a 17-year-old illegal resident from Hebron, and the car he was driving was suspected to be stolen. Pepper spray was found in the suspect's possession during a search. The minor was arrested and taken for questioning by investigators at the Beit Shemesh station.
