While the protest, one Albanian threw a bomb near the mass of people, so that there were many injured, 12 injured people, and all were affected by bomb fragments.

Doctor Mesud Dzekovic (Pediatrician) was hitted directly into the heart, while he was in front of his house, in his yard.

Serbs have asked KFOR and EULEX for military helicopter totransport him to a country in Europe, to be operated on immediately, but did not get anything. The doctor died.

Update: As we found out, the name of the Albanian who threw a bomb is Gezim Rama from southern Kosovska Mitrovica. And when we asked the police (KPS), they do not have a suspected!
