Brussels is becoming Far West: Again two people haphazardly shot dead on terrace
Drug violence is intensifying in the Belgian capital. Once again, two innocent lives are paying the price of fighting between drug gangs in Brussels.
Two people were killed Wednesday night in a shooting on a terrace in Saint-Gilles in Brussels. Two more who were also sitting quietly on the terrace enjoying the summer weather are still fighting for their lives.
Two persons on a scooter drove into the street and suddenly opened fire with a kalashnikov.
It looks very much like a reckoning within the drug scene, as there have been a particularly large number of such events in Brussels in recent months. But the victims this time seem to have been chosen haphazardly. Was it a message to someone who lives at the café, was he also present there or is it a message to the owner of the bar? It seems that the perpetrators certainly wanted to create unrest in the neighborhood, and for this they clearly did not shun murder.
