Israeli police kill Palestinian man

Israeli police say they have shot dead a Palestinian who stabbed three people in the old city of Jerusalem.

Spokeswoman Luba Samri says the man stabbed two Jewish youths Saturday before fleeing, with police forces giving chase. He then stabbed one of the policemen before he was shot and killed. Samri says the victims suffered light to moderate injuries.
