Jerusalem Post:

A massive police manhunt was underway Thursday for an Arab man who stabbed 21-year-old British yeshiva student Shmuel Mat to death and seriously wounded a classmate with a large kitchen knife in a terror attack in Jerusalem's Old City...
The two victims of the stabbing attack, who studied at the city's Mir Yeshiva, were rushed by Magen David Adom paramedics to Hadassah University Hospital at Ein Karem and Jerusalem's Sha'are Tzedek Hospital...
Mat died on the operating table in the intensive care unit of Hadassah Hospital just over an hour later, having never regained consciousness...
Mat came to Jerusalem from Britain to study about a year and a half ago. Rabbi Binyamin Carlebach, head of the Mir Yeshiva, related that he would get up every morning at 4:00 to study. He was engaged several months ago and was planning to marry in three months.
According to an initial police investigation of the 8:20 p.m. attack, Sammy Weissbard, who was stabbed while walking with Mat just inside the Jaffa Gate on David Street managed to make his way to a nearby Old City police station to report the stabbing. Police officers rushed to the scene, on the edge of the Muslim Quarter, and found a second, critically wounded victim -Mat- lying on the ground with a stab wound under his stomach...
A hospital spokeswoman said Thursday that Weissbard was in stable condition and was expected to make a full recovery...

May Hashem avenge his blood.
