The terrorist is lethally neutralized (unconfirmed) searches are ongoing for any accomplices, the stabbing took place in 3 locations. The terrorist is suspected to be a Palestinian male from the West Bank/Palestinian territories.
The victims were not in the same location; the assailant apparently was able to go on an extended spree:
MDA Ayalon Region Deputy Director Paramedic Rami Meushar and Medicycle Unit Senior EMT Eran Carmel said that those wounded in the attack "were in three separate locations, approximately 500 meters away from each other."
A Ynet report stated that Odeh began the stabbing spree in the park behind a gas station on Moshe Dayan Street. He started going toward the sidewalk and the bus stop on the street adjacent to the gas station and then stabbed three people in the park and another person on the sidewalk.
