Twenty-six-year-old Adi Jegna noticed a suspicious item that later turned out to be a bomb during her bus ride to Bat Yam, Israel, Thursday evening.
Jegna told the Jewish News Syndicate (JNS) in a story published Monday that she became suspicious when she saw there was an unattended white bag on one of the bus seats.
