No Parking (except for the late Er-the-elder and younger)

In Bayrampaşa, Istanbul, the day before yesterday Orhan Bal (56) parked 
his car in front of the shop owned by Lütfü Er (75), sparking an argument
between the two.  Yesterday morning, Bal was attacked by Er and his son
Ramazan Er (54).  This (of course) prompted Bal to come to the scene of
the incident at 1300 hours yesterday and fire his gun at the elder Er in 
front of his shop.  

Other shop owners and passers-by tried to restrain Bal, who, having been
stabbed by Er-the-younger, tried to flee, firing back at Ramazan bey, who 
was in hot pursuit.  Police and medics arrived to take the wounded 
combatants to a hospital but both Er-the-elder and Er-the-younger were 
pronounced dead.  Treatment for Bal's knife wounds is continuing.

             Was to be married in two months :(

Mert Engin (26), a tow truck driver in Antalya, went to Kepez at 4
o'clock in the morning yesterday to aid a taxi driver, whose car's
battery had died.  As he began loading the taxi onto his tow truck, 
a rental car in which brothers D. D. (17) and B.D. (21) were riding, 
came onto the same street.  The brothers were annoyed by the noise 
Engin was making with his rescue of the taxi so (of course) an 
argument ensued. 

The argument died down and Engin resumed his work.  But the noise
from the tow truck's tire skidding caused the argument to begin anew,
with B.D. striking Engin in the head with a hammer. Now thoroughly
enraged, B.D. fired his gun twice in the air and then once into Engin's
head (!).  B.D. fled in the rental car but his brother D.D. was taken
into custody by police at the scene of the incident.  Engin was 
pronounced dead at the scene.

Police determined that B.D. has a long record of crimes.  They 
found the rental car in front of his father's house in Kepez and a
search of the house yielded the car's key, B.D. telephone and the gun
he used to shoot Engin, who was engaged to be married two months
from now (!).
