A 24-year-old resident of the Givat Ronen outpost in the West Bank was arrested on Saturday after throwing stones and shoving IDF soldiers, police reported.
Border Police received a report of Jewish settlers throwing stones toward Palestinian bystanders. When the officers arrived at the scene, the suspects attacked them as well.
The troops used riot control measures to disperse the stone throwers, one of whom approached a soldier and shoved him before being arrested. The same individual was carrying a gun.
Later, when a police vehicle arrived at the scene to take the suspect in for questioning, a number of settlers threw stones at it, resulting in the car being damaged.
