"Wedding guests shoot down passing plane"
Wonderful. Blame the victims.

At 13:30 this Saturday near the village of Radina, Serbia, an UTVA-75, a
Yugoslav-made 2-seat trainer, was shot down by a revolver bullet fired
from
one of the guests at a wedding. The plane was flying low and the guests
did
not see it approach as they started firing firearms of various calibers.
The
bullet hit the plane's wing and pierced the fuel tank. The pilot lost
control and hit nearby high-tension wires that resulted in the explosion
of
the fuel tank. The plane crash landed and was set afire. The crew were
rescued, both the pilot and copilot suffering sever wounds. The copilot's
health is stable, but doctors are still fighting for the pilot's life.
Media
later reported that neither of the crew had a pilot licence, except the
pilot who had a glider rating. Both were employees of Kraljevo Customs. It
is also said that from the preliminary reports, no action will be taken
against the guests, since the plane was flying dangerously low in a
forbidden area.
