This is the horrifying moment police shot a deaf Palestinian woman in the legs after she failed to respond to warning calls.
The woman was shot as she walked alongside rail tracks after walking towards police officers in East Jerusalem, Israel, on Sunday evening.
Officers said they shot at the woman fearing she was carrying an explosive device with the intent of carrying out an attack.
Police confirmed later that no weapons of any kind were found in her possession.
A police spokesman said last night: "A short while ago a suspect approached by foot along the train tracks from the area of Beit Hanina toward Pisgat Ze'ev, and was noticed by civilians and security guards who alerted Border Police soldiers who were nearby.
