8 Killed, 13 Injured In Serbia Shooting: Report

Eight people were killed and 13 injured late Thursday in a shooting near a Serbian town about 60 kilometres (37 miles) south of capital Belgrade, state-run media reported.

The shooting occurred near Mladenovac as the attacker opened fire with an automatic weapon from a moving vehicle and fled, RTS television reported. Police were searching for the attacker.

A heavy police presence was deployed and numerous ambulances rushed to the scene, while helicopters were flying over the area.
