MONTENEGRO was in a state of shock today after a gunman fatally shot 12 people, including two children, before killing himself.

At least four others were wounded in the shooting rampage in Cetinje on Wednesday that followed a bar fight, officials said. This was the western town’s second such incident in three years.

The shooter, identified as 45-year-old Aco Martinovic, killed the owner of the bar, the bar owner’s children and his own family members, officials said.
