A unarmed civilian spotted the armed terrorist, ran into the synagogue and called out for anyone with a gun to come out. Another civilian, a member of the local counter-terrorist rapid response team (Kitat Konenut) who was in the synagogue at the time, rushed out and shot the terrorist four times, killing him before the terrorist could complete his attack.
