Local BBC journalist killed in Somalia
2008-06-08
Suspected Islamist insurgents shot dead a local journalist working for the BBC in southern Somalia on Saturday, witnesses said. Residents said the gunmen confronted the journalist outside his home in the port of Kismayu. "They shot him in the ribs and stomach. He was rushed to hospital but died shortly before he could receive a blood transfusion that was being prepared," said local man Aden Osman.
