Terror incident in Ramle
Ben-Gvir was leaving the scene in the city of Ramle near Tel Aviv where police said a suspected stabbing attack had occurred shortly before.
Central district police chief Avi Biton said a 21-year-old man who was reportedly mentally unstable had stabbed a 19-year-old woman.
He said the suspect had been attempting to flee the scene when a civilian shot and "neutralized" him, without explaining further.
Israel's ambulance service said the woman was conscious but in serious condition and was taken to hospital for treatment.
