According to KAN, Segev shielded her baby with her body during the attack. A female light rail passenger told Ynet that "[Segev] went to get off the train and was shot. We heard the baby screaming. We pulled him out of the carrier. One of the policemen took me and the baby in a van to Wolfson [Hospital]." 

Segev lived in Tel Aviv and owned a fitness and Pilates studio in the city center. Her husband, Yaari Vigdar, is a soldier in the reserves, who is currently fighting in Gaza and in the north, KAN added.

Vigdar spoke to KAN, saying that after he recieved no answer from his wife, he rode his bicycle quickly to the scene, but could not find her.

"After a thorough search, I found our dog shot while passers-by were taking care of her. I looked for Inbar in the whole neighborhood and realized that I had to go to the hospital because I didn't get a response from anywhere."

Vigdar went to look for his son, finding him in the hands of a doctor in a protected area of the hospital, due to the Iranian attack on Tuesday night, he told KAN.
