Palestinian Kills Israeli, Wounds Family in West Bank Attack

RAMALLAH, West Bank — A Palestinian gunman opened fire at a family traveling in a car in the West Bank on Friday, killing an Israeli man and wounding his wife and two teenage children.
Hours earlier, police said a Palestinian woman was killed when she pulled out a knife and threatened an officer at a checkpoint near the flashpoint West Bank city of Hebron.
Friday's violence comes a day after a Palestinian stabbed a 13-year-old Israeli girl to death as she slept in her bedroom in a West Bank settlement. That attack, carried out by a 17-year-old Palestinian high school dropout, was among the most brazen attacks so far in a nine-month wave of attacks, and it drew angry accusations and calls from Israeli leaders for the world to condemn the incident.
In Friday's attack on the family car, the wounded were evacuated to hospital and troops were searching for the Palestinian gunman who fled the scene, the military said.
