Two Police Officers Killed and Two Injured in Shooting at Turkish Police Station

Two police officers were shot and killed, and two others were injured on Monday at a police station near the large Turkish city of Izmir, in the western part of the country, announced Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya.

Details of the Incident

According to Ali Yerlikaya, one of the injured police officers is in critical condition, and a 16-year-old suspect has been apprehended.
