Shooting of Russian police at the border, hunt for “armed deserter”
It is about a manhunt in Novoshakhtinsk, a Russian city near the border with Ukraine, in which a “machine gun deserter”, as the newspaper “Mash” calls it, fired on the Moscow police and injured two officers. Russian news agency Tass said the attacker fired at police near a customs office. Telegram channel 112 said officers were looking for a missing woman in the area when a man in camouflage clothing came out of the woods and started shooting at the police vehicle. A curfew was therefore imposed in Novoshakhtinsk to facilitate the search for the attacker by the security forces, while schools and kindergartens were closed.
