Jerusalem light rail attack claims second victim

(JTA) — A woman critically injured in a terror attack in Jerusalem last week has died of her injuries.
The 22-year-old tourist from Ecuador died Sunday at Hadassah Medical Center, four days after a Palestinian man drove his car into a light rail station near Ammunition Hill, in northern Jerusalem, as passengers were disembarking.
She is the second person to be killed in the Oct. 22 car attack. The first was a 3-month-old American citizen, Chaya Zissel Braun. At least six others were injured in the attack.
The driver was shot by police as he attempted to flee the scene and died later in Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center. Abdelrahman Al-Shaludi, a Palestinian resident of the eastern Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan, was buried Sunday evening after delays due to Palestinian rioting throughout eastern Jerusalem.
