The driver continued driving until the bus approached the Mamilla mall.

The woman was treated on site by MDA, and then transported to Hadassah Har Tzofim hospital. United Hatzalah treated a few other shocked passengers.

Passengers on the bus and police believe that most likely the bus was shot with a bullet, but are also considering that it was a stone shot with a slingshot.
