On the morning of 15 May 2011, a terrorist attack was carried out in Tel Aviv. A truck was deliberately rammed into cars and pedestrians at busy "Bar-Lev" street (Highway 461) in the south of the city, killing one man and injuring 17 others.[1] The truck driver was identified as Aslam Ibrahim Isa, a 22-year-old Arab-Israeli man from the city of Kfar Kassem. Immediately after the attack he was arrested and taken to questioning by police.
Around 9:35 am, beginning at "Mesubim" junction and for 2 kilometers (1.2 miles), Isa shouted "Allahu Akbar!" as he hit with his truck multiple cars, buses, traffic signs, security rails, and people.[2] Police said a total of 15 vehicles were hit during the attack. Aviv Morag, a 29-year-old man from Givatayim, was killed.[1] The ramming attack ended when the truck crashed into an empty bus near a school. Isa then left the truck and reportedly shouted and threw objects at people. He hit a young girl in the head with a traffic light.[3] He was arrested by police, and later sentenced to prison.
