An employee with the Jerusalem municipality was slightly hurt Sunday when he was stabbed by a young Palestinian just outside Jerusalem's walled Old City, Israeli police said.
A police spokesman suggested the stabbing could have political motives or was a "violent reaction" to the seizure of unauthorized market stalls by city officials near Damascus Gate.
