  2. Two gunmen shot dead at anti-Islam art show in Texas ...

    Two gunmen were shot dead on Sunday after they opened fire at an art exhibit in Texas that was organised by an anti-Islamic group and featured caricatures of the Prophet Mohammad, city officials and police said.

    The shooting, an echo of past attacks or threats in other Western countries against art depicting the Prophet, took place shortly before 7pm in a parking lot of the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, northeast of Dallas.

    Police said they had not immediately determined the identity of the two gunmen or whether they were linked to critics of the event who branded it anti-Islamic.

    “I have no idea who they area, other than they’re dead and in the street,” city police spokesman, officer Joe Harn, told Reuters.

    As a precaution, police were examining the suspects’ car for any explosives that might be in the vehicle, Harn added....france24.com
