Miracle In Haifa
A major catastrophe was averted in Haifa early this morning when a suicide bomber blew himself up earlier than he planned, wounding one man "moderately" and lightly wounding close to 30 others. Two Zevulun District policemen noted the suspicious man and asked him for identification. The bomber then detonated the bomb, which injured but did not kill him. The two policemen saw that he continued to move his hands as if to blow up another bomb, and shot him to death.

The operative assumption of the police is that he did not arrive alone, and combed the area for his accomplice(s). It is assumed that the terrorist had planned to explode his bomb-pack, which was similar to the one that killed 15 people last Sunday morning, in a city bus.
