Three dead in Macedonian shootout (1 policeman, 2 gunmen) SKOPJE, Macedonia, Sept. 10 Three men, including a police chief, were killed and another three, including two policemen, were injured in a shootout in northeastern Macedonia, police said.
Three gunmen attacked a police car early Monday at the village of Vaksince, near the border with Serbia's mainly ethnic-Albanian Kosovo province, the Macedonian news agency MIA reported.
Fatmir Alili, police chief of the Matejce village outside Kumanovo, was killed in the attack and two officers were slightly injured, the Serbian news agency Tanjug said.
Macedonian police killed two attackers and injured a third.
The third gunman fled from Macedonia to Kosovo where he was arrested by international police and NATO soldiers, Tanjug said. He was taken to a hospital in the Kosovo capital of Pristina.
The attackers were identified as ethnic-Albanians.
The region around the village of Vaksince was known for activities by ethnic-Albanian guerrillas that started several months of a rebellion against the government of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia demanding greater national minority rights in 2001.

The time has come for all decent people to ask of themselves, what can I do to improve the marksmanship of the Macedonian police?
