ISTANBUL: A gunman killed six people and wounded eight others in southern Turkiye on Monday, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said, with media saying a manhunt was under way to find the perpetrator.
Erdogan gave the toll in a broadcast statement and asked for “God´s mercy” on those killed, but provided no further details about the incident, which occurred near the city of Mersin.
The Anadolu state news agency and the Sabah daily said the suspect being sought was a 37-year-old man who reportedly shot dead his ex-wife before heading out on a murderous spree.
