The militiamen who were guarding the Nazran sports complex were shelled by a man from his pistol; he was shot dead by response fire.

"The incident happened at 12:30 a.m. Moscow time. A suspiciously-looking man tried to enter the physical culture and health-improving complex, where a judo tournament was held. When checked by a metal detector, he pulled out his pistol and opened fire on militiamen.
