Six persons were killed on Sunday when the groom’s father at a wedding in the northern Serbian town of Kanjiza, ran amok, killing the bride, her parents and several others.
After the shooting, which police said was triggered by a family feud, the shooter, 55, committed suicide with his hunting rifle. He was said to be opposed to the wedding: he did not like the bride.
Serbia’s interior ministry in an e-mailed statement blamed “bad family relationships,” for the killer’s action.
The victims aged between 20 and 70 were family members of the bride and the groom, Belgrade-based newspaper Vecernje Novosti reported.
While police did not confirm how the shooter died, the newspaper said the drunk man killed himself.
