JERUSALEM: An American tourist was stabbed to death and another woman wounded while hiking in Israel, police said today.
“We are examining whether this is a nationalistic stabbing,” police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said, using Israel’s term for an attack by Palestinian militants. Kaye Wilson, a Briton who immigrated to Israel, said she and Christine Logan, a visitor from the United States, were attacked by two Arabic-speaking men while hiking on Saturday in a wooded area south of Jerusalem.
Wilson told police she played dead and managed to reach a parking area where people called the police.
