BTW, the shooter was not killed...nor was the politician in grave danger either:
Quote:
A 'would-be assassin' who aimed a gun at the head of a Bulgarian politician as he was giving a speech had no intention of killing his victim, it has been suggested.
Oktay Enimehmedov stormed the stage at the National Palace of Culture in Bulgaria's capital Sofia on Saturday during a political conference and held the gun at the head of Ahmed Dogan, leader of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms.
But it has now been revealed the gunman used a gas pistol loaded with pepper spray that would not have killed the opposition leader.

Quote:
Bulgaria's deputy chief prosecutor Borislav Sarafov told Sofia news agency novinite.com that the stunt cannot be deemed an attempt on Dogan's life because of the gas handgun used.
He said: 'With this gun one cannot kill a person. With these bullets one can't kill a person either.'
