Rescuers said the vehicle broke through a roadblock, endangered officers and rammed a police vehicle; a procedure to arrest the suspects included gunfire. The injured suspect was extracted from the car, while another suspect fled on foot. Another Israeli vehicle struck a guardrail during the incident, and a woman suffered a very minor injury without requiring medical treatment.
