An assailant opened fire on police officers in the Serbian border town of Loznica, resulting in the death of one officer and the injury of another. The incident occurred in the early hours of Thursday when a patrol stopped a car with two individuals inside. One of the occupants stepped out of the vehicle and began shooting at the officers, hitting one in the chest and the other in the shoulder.
The wounded officers were promptly transported to a local hospital, where one of them tragically succumbed to their injuries. Authorities have initiated a search for the assailant utilizing drones and helicopters. While the identity of the suspect remains unknown, a passport issued in Kosovo and a German identification card were discovered at the scene.
