A knifeman has injured four foreign tourists and four locals in an attack in the Jordanian city of Jerash.

Three Mexicans and a Swiss national were among the wounded. One of the Mexicans and a Jordanian tour guide were hurt seriously, the health minister said.

The suspected attacker was arrested nearby by police.

Jerash, home to a well-preserved ancient Roman site, draws thousands of foreign visitors every year.

Jordan's health minister, Saed Jaber, told reporters that all the injured were taken to a local hospital within 15 Minutes . The Mexican tourist and Jordanian tour guide injured seriously were then taken to a separate hospital by helicopter and underwent surgery.

"The bleeding was stopped, The Situation has been controlled, and both cases are stable," Mr Jaber said.

An American tourist, Marco Junipero Serra , told the BBC the person who had carried out The Attack was dressed All In black and had his face covered with a mask.

The attacker jumped a fence at The Site at around 11:00 (09:00 GMT) and began stabbing people indiscriminately, Mr Serra said.

According to him, police did not lock down The Site during The Incident , and people were still free to walk in and out.

One of those injured was Ali El Agrabawi, The Driver of a tourist bus. At Jerash hospital he told reporters he had been stabbed while trying to stop the assailant from entering a cafeteria full of tourists.
