Attack on law enforcers

In the evening on September 7, at the stationary post "Mayak 12", near the village of Yuzhny, Malgobek District of Ingushetia, a traffic police inspector stopped a Toyota Camry car without number plates to check documents. The driver, a resident of Nazran, born in 1978, and two passengers were wearing masks with eye slits and carrying firearms. They got out of the car and went to the inspector. His colleague tried to block their way; the driver pointed a pistol in his direction and began threatening to kill him. He tried to shoot twice, but the policemen, by using force, detained the driver and his passengers.
