(06-30) 22:50 PDT JERUSALEM (AP) --

Israeli troops on Tuesday fatally shot a Palestinian who fired a pistol at soldiers manning a checkpoint in the northern West Bank, the army said.

Palestinian security sources said a 20-year-old man was killed by soldiers at a checkpoint between Tulkarem and Qalqiliya, but they had no details of the incident.

It was the second death since three main Palestinian groups on Sunday declared a temporary halt to attacks on Israelis.

On Monday, Palestinian gunmen shot and killed a Bulgarian construction worker on an Israeli road project near the West Bank town of Yabed. Renegade members of the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, loosely linked to Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, claimed responsibility.
