Two young men, aged 20 and 22, were injured this evening, after they were shot at. The serious incident took place in a field, near the locality of Congaz, Comrat district, reports IPN.

According to the police, one of them has a severe wound in the chest area and was admitted to the intensive care unit of the Comrat Regional Hospital. The young woman who accompanied him suffered a bruise to her left shoulder.

From the initial checks, law enforcement determined that the shot was most likely fired from a rifled barrel gun, predominantly used by poachers. One of the versions examined by investigators is that the two could have been mistaken for animals by the shooter. A criminal case for attempted murder has been initiated on this matter.

The police continue their investigations to identify the person who fired and to establish all the circumstances of the incident. People who have relevant information are urged to call Service 112.
