In Kyiv, a Man Shoots Neighbour Over Refusal to Pay for Electricity (VIDEO)
The victim has little chance of survival.
In Kyiv, in the entrance of a building at 2a Chaadaev Street, a man named Aleksey fired several shots from an automatic rifle at one of his neighbours who had come to confront him, over the fact that he had been connected to the common riser and had not paid for electricity for several years.
His daughter tried to stop him, but to no avail.
The victim, named Nikolay, has little chance of survival, according to doctors, Strana.ua reports.
Meanwhile, police, without specifying the severity of the victim's condition, report wounds to the leg from two gunshots.
A few days ago, the power went out in the entrance. An electrician found that this was due to Aleksey's connection to the common riser. He was disconnected, and a lock was put on the electrical panel, but yesterday he cut the lock off and reconnected himself.
After the incident, law enforcement officers cordoned off the building in search of weapons that Aleksey could still have been keeping. He barricaded himself in, refusing to surrender, but was ultimately detained.
The shooter is not a military man; where he got the weapon is still unknown. Police say he faces up to 15 years in prison.
