On October 24 at 11:44 p.m., a medical center reported to the Ministry of Internal Affairs’ 112 emergency operations center that an ambulance crew had transported an injured person from Kievyan Street in Yerevan for medical treatment.
As a result of coordinated operations by various units of the Ministry of Internal Affairs’ Police, it was established that an altercation had taken place between a group of people on Kievyan Street. According to preliminary information, one of the men fired a gun during the altercation.
Two people involved in the incident have already been identified and located. Police are continuing their efforts to establish all the circumstances of the incident and find the other participants. A preliminary investigation is underway.
A full understanding of the incident will require determining what triggered the altercation and under what circumstances the gun was fired. It is also not yet known what condition the person taken to hospital is in.
The discovery of two participants is the first information about the progress of the investigation, but it does not, in itself, reveal all the details of the incident. Further investigative work must establish the role of each participant and reconstruct the sequence of events. Until then, it is important to distinguish preliminary information from confirmed facts.
