The suspect was searched by the security forces after a citizen alerted them to the unusual way in which he was acting.
Upon searching him, they discovered two knives and a note he had written, in which he asked for forgiveness from his parents and promised that they would receive money for his actions.
The suspect, a resident of a West Bank village near Jenin, was transferred to the Shin Bet for further investigation.
At the same time, Israel Border Police officers arrested a suspect in the Old City of Jerusalem, after discovering that he had been planning to carry out a stabbing attack using a pair of scissors he had hidden in a bag.
