UPDATE 11:13 PM

There are now three police officers hurt. Here are more details. 

According to Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld, one of the officers is in moderate-to-serious condition, while the other two are in light-to-moderate condition. All three were treated at the scene by Magon David Adom paramedics before being rushed to an area hospital, he said.

As of 11 p.m. he said the suspect has not been apprehended.

"Police have blocked off roadways in A-Tur and are actively searching for the suspect," he said.

Last week an Palestinian from east Jerusalem was arrested for for running over and killing Shalom Yohai Cherki, 25, and seriously injuring a young woman in the capital.  

Under investigation the suspect told police that he was intent on “seeking out Jews to murder.”

The driver apparently fled the scene. The JPost article has a picture of the car.
