| [NYPOST] At least 10 people, including two children, were killed and four others were seriously maimed on Wednesday in a shooting rampage that followed a bar brawl in a western Montenegrin city, officials said. The shooter was on the run. Police identified the attacker as 45-year-old Aco Martinovic. He killed the owner of the bar in the city of Cetinje, the bar owner's children and his own family members, Interior Minister Danilo Saranovic said at a news conference. Police dispatched special troops to search for the attacker in Cetinje, located some 30 kilometers (18 miles) northwest of the capital, Podgorica. All the roads in and out of the city have been blocked as police swarmed the streets. Saranovic described the suspect as dangerous and appealed on the residents to stay indoors. Suspect who shot dead 10 in Montenegro kills himself — authorities [IsraelTimes] A gunman who killed at least 10 people in a rampage in a small town in Montenegro died from self-inflicted injuries on Thursday after attempting suicide, the country’s interior minister, Danilo Saranovic, says. The gunman, identified by police as Aleksandar Martinovic, 45, attempted suicide near his home in the town of Cetinje after being cornered by police. "When he saw that he was in a hopeless situation, he attempted suicide. He did not succumb to his injuries on the spot, but during the transport to the hospital," Saranovic tells Montenegro’s state broadcaster, RTCG. Saranovic provides no details on the attempted suicide. Martinovic was on the run after opening fire on Wednesday afternoon at a restaurant in Cetinje, a small town located 38 km (23.6 miles) west of Podgorica, the Montenegrin capital, where he killed four people. The shooter then moved on to three other locations, killing at least six more people, including two children, police said. Four other people suffered life-threatening injuries. Police say Martinovic had a history of illegal weapons possession. Late on Wednesday, police director Lazar Scepanovic said the suspect was thought to have been drinking heavily before the shooting. Montenegrin Prime Minister Milojko Spajic said there had been a brawl before shots were fired. Police say the shooting was not thought to be connected to organized crime. |
