Magen David Adom treated the wounded on the scene. At least one wounded victim is hospitalized in critical condition, three in moderately serious condition and two with light injuries.

Reports by police indicate that the shooters may have disguised themselves as Orthodox Jews. Police suspect the shooters dined at the popular Max Brenner restaurant before executing the terror attack. Both terrorists were apprehended, with one wounded by police and hospitalized in moderate condition, according to Reuters. Police later confirmed that the shooters were Palestinian relatives from near Hebron.

"I was sitting next to Max Brenner when I saw the shots. They shot without stopping in all directions. I ran to the Super Pharm (pharmacy) and he ran toward me. I was told to hide and tried to run," said a woman who hid in a nearby bookstore, as translated from Hebrew in Yedioth Achronoth.
