“From within the territory of the seized police station indiscriminate shootings are being made in several directions at the moment, putting the lives of law enforcement officers, as well as inhabitants of the surrounding areas in danger”, - writes Ashot Aharonyan, the Head of the Public Relations and Information Department of the RA Police, on his Facebook page moments ago.

Earlier today the police disseminated the footage of the armed clash between the members of the armed group and police officers outside the seized station, where few members of the group attempted breaching the security zone.

Later on two members of the group, wounded during the attempt, were transferred to hospital for immediate treatment in emergency care, based on mutual agreement between the armed group and the law enforcement bodies in the area.
