He was a quiet man, kept to himself mostly...
Metin Ö., who killed six people and injured eight others in Mersin,
began his series of murders after killing his ex-wife. Following the
consecutive murders, police were put on high alert and a search
operation was launched with helicopter support. While there were
fears that the killer would continue the killings, news arrived that
the operation had ended. The suspect committed suicide when he
realized he was about to be caught in a house where he was cornered.
The death toll has risen in Mersin following a series of armed attacks by
Metin Ö. (37), who shot and killed his ex-wife Arzu Özden (32) in the
Darıpınarı neighborhood of Çamlıyayla district. After the incident,
Metin Ö. fled and later arrived at Sabri Pan's restaurant in the Kadelli
Dörtler Neighborhood of Tarsus district in a car with the registration
number 01 B 9171, where he opened fire.
In the attack, business owner Sabri Pan died in the hospital where he
was taken, while Ahmet Ercan Can, who worked at the business, died
at the scene. The attacker, who continued to flee in his vehicle, shot
and killed Yusuf Oktay, a young man grazing animals in Kaburgediği
Neighborhood, and then Abdullah Koca, a truck driver, at a gas station
in Yeniköy neighborhood.
