Athens is becoming the Wild West of Europe. There were three shootings in the Greek capitol for one week. It is a miracle that there are no victims until now and the police cannot find out who is behind the unpunished shootings.

A little bit before midnight on Christmas a shooter or shooters shot at a train, which connects the Athens suburbs. The train was in Tavros between the Rouf and Rendy stations when bullets broke the windows of the middle wagons. There were five people in the wagon, and it is a miracle that none of them was injured. The incident is investigated by the security service in Attika region.

Right after the shooting the train had stopped, the passengers were evacuated, and the police investigated the region in order to try and figure out from where it was shot. Two bullets were found in the wagon but it is still unknown from what kind of weapon they are.

For about one week, this is the third shooting in the nothing expecting Athens. With unknown reasons was the shooting, which pierced the hand of a 17 year old boy in the Athenian suburb Peristeri. Until now the police have neither found the shooter not have an explanation about the accident. Three days ago two Kalashnikovs shot at a bus with 20 Special Forces policemen in it. Luckily no one was hurt. Responsibility of this case took the “Domestic Action” organization. The shooter haven’t been found yet.
