Beach atmosphere: the difference is like day and night...

At 11 o'clock the night before last, Ahmet B., working at a facility at 

Kapuz Beach in Zonguldak, wanted the remaining patrons to leave the 

facility.  However (!), Murat K. and Hakan G., who were drinking 

alcohol, wanted to stay a bit longer.  An argument ensued and then the 

three began punching and kicking each other.  

Ahmet B. left the scene but soon returned with a gun and began firing

on the others, injuring both Murat K. and Hakan G.  Two off-duty Coast 

Guard officers fired into the air to intervene and police and medics 

arrived to take the wounded to a hospital, where they remain in good

condition. Ahmet B. was taken into custody by police.
