MOSCOW, Russia – A man has been detained after shooting dead 9 people in a drunken dispute at a weekend cottage in a village outside Moscow, Russian investigators said Sunday, June 4.
The alleged assailant gunned down 5 men and 4 women after a drinking session on Saturday night, June 3, turned violent in the village of Redkino, some 110 kilometres (70 miles) northwest of Moscow, the Investigative Committee said.
“During the get-together there was a domestic dispute between the guests, after which the suspect left and then returned with a hunting rifle,” investigators said in a statement, adding that the man had been “drinking spirits”.
“He fired several shots, as a result of which at least nine people died,” investigators said, raising the death toll by one from figures given earlier Sunday morning.
Investigators said the shooter – a 45-year-old resident of Moscow – was detained on suspicion of mass murder after survivors managed to call the police. – Rappler.com
