| (Xinhua) -- Four people were killed and seven others wounded most likely due to a family feud in eastern Turkey on Saturday, the semi-official Anatolia news agency reported. Earlier, Anatolia reported that a group of militants of the outlawed Kurdish Workers' Party opened fire at Turkish citizens in arable fields in Genc town of Bingol province, killing four people and injuring seven others. Bingol Governor Irfan Balkanlioglu was quoted as saying that the incident occurred at 19:30 local time (1630 GMT), most likely due to a family dispute. The injured have been taken to Bingol State Hospital for medical treatment, said the report, adding that the investigation into the incident is underway. |
