| Police were fired upon by unknown gunmen Wednesday as they tried to investigate the earlier wounding of two women including the wife of a local human rights campaigner. It was unclear whether any of the officers had been wounded. Army Brig. Gen. Nurdin Zaenal told El Shinta radio that military officers were accompanying police.He blamed separatist rebels for the shooting. Sounds like a bad action movie. Shooting up the coppers investigating the crime scene isn't really good technique in real life, even though it's done all the time in the moompitchers. There should be a car chase soon, and the guy with the pretty hair will get the girl in the end. |
