Italian shooting rampage leaves seven dead
TURIN, Italy — A security guard in northwestern Italy shot and killed seven people yesterday and then killed himself, police said.
The victims, all adults, were found in two adjacent apartments in Chieri, near Turin, said Col. Filippo Ricciarelli, of the carabinieri military-police in Turin.
Police were still investigating, but a murder-suicide was suspected, Ricciarelli said.
The ANSA and AGI news agencies said the man was a security guard, and that he opened fire on family members and neighbors before turning the gun on himself.
Indonesian terrorist group disbands after Bali bombing
JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesian officials interrogated a security guard and another man yesterday about the deadly nightclub bombing in Bali and said traces of C-4 plastic explosives were found at the scene of the blast.
With Indonesia under increasing international pressure to combat terrorism, a violent Muslim group with ties to Indonesia's military disbanded the first apparent sign the government was getting serious about moving against Islamic extremism.
The announcement by the group, Laskar Jihad, came as the accused spiritual leader of another extremist network linked to the al-Qaida terror network said he would submit to police questioning.
