Commando wounds taxi driver

A FSB commando captain had a quarrel with a taxi driver in Piatigorsk, Stavropol territory, which led the commando to fire an Osa self-defence gun at the man. The rubber bullet hit the driver's cheek and he was admitted to hospital.

An examination is under way, says the Piatigorsk district military prosecutor's office. The FSB Department in the Stavropol territory gives assurances that Stavropol state security has nothing to do with what happened, Stavropolskaia Pravda reports.
