Exchange of fire near railway crossing in Hantsavichy

An exchange of fire took place near the railway crossing in the town of Hansavichy (Brest Region). Local inhabitants called the police. Policemen arrived just in time and saw there were two groups of young men who started a showdown – five against two. However, the latter had an important argument – a hunting rifle. One of them shot in the direction of the attackers.

According to preliminary information, the reason for the conflict was the fact that the guys wanted to give the sister of one of the other guys a ride in their car without her consent.

However, the exchange of fire was not the last incident near the railway crossing in Hantsavichy. A car driven by a drunk guy clashed with the car of a high rank policeman who had arrived on the spot.
