   Black Sea women are renowned for their aim.

Bahar Aksoy (29), whose husband in is prison, lives in the Hastane
neighborhood of Samsun's İlkadım district.  Two days ago Bahar hanım
got into an argument with Burak Y. (23) and Orak K. (19).  After the
argument the two returned to Bahar hanım's house and started firing a
'pompalı tüfek' (pump-action rifle).

Bahar hanım's 10 year-old son was in the line of fire and he was wounded
in the leg.  Seeing her son injured, Bahar hanım grabbed an unlicensed
revolver from her house and shot Burak Y. in the head and Oral K. in
the chest.  Both men were seriously wounded and remain under treatment.
Bahar hanım was arrested.


İlkadım district is part of Samsun city.
