Turkish security forces have arrested two suspects in connection with the fatal shooting of a Bulgarian police officer at the border with Turkey, regional Turkish authorities said on Tuesday.
Bulgarian Interior Minister Ivan Demerdzhiev said the officer was killed by gunfire from the direction of a group of migrants trying to cross into his country, an European Union member state, from Turkey.
In a statement, the governor's office in Turkish border province Edirne said a shotgun and shells used in the shooting were found in the possession of the suspects. The statement gave no further detail.
