A security guard was killed at the premises of a TV station when unidentified gunmen fired gunshots at the building in Tirana, capital of Albania early on Monday, police said.
The armed attack took place around 1:00 a.m. local time and the 60-year-old security guard was killed in a booth outside the building of Top Channel TV station, according to the police.
