CETINJE, MONTENEGRO (Worthy News) – Several people have died in a shooting at a restaurant in Montenegro near the Balkan nation’s historical capital of Cetinje, police said Wednesday.
Local media said a brawl in the afternoon preceded the New Year’s Day shooting, adding that five people were killed. Police did not immediately specify the number of casualties.
However, police said they sent special units to the area and urged people to remain inside their homes.
Montenegro’s Police Directorate added that “all available police units are on the ground, undertaking activities within their jurisdiction” to apprehend the suspect.
The incident comes amid concerns about Montenegro’s deeply rooted gun culture, a phenomenon also seen in several other Balkan nations.
In 2022, 11 people, including two children and a gunman, were killed in a mass shooting in Montenegro, and six others were injured.
Despite strict gun laws, the Western Balkans remain awash with illegal weapons dating back to World War One, according to experts.
Many weapons were also distributed during the Balkan wars of the 1990s, which led to the breakup of Yugoslavia.
