VITINA - A group of Kosovo Albanians fired at Serb teacher Milisav Ilic in Vitina on Friday afternoon and wounded him seriously, local Church Committee representatives said.
Six Kosovo Albanians of the neighbouring village of Lubiste came to Ilic's house during the day, allegedly in search of a missing tractor. They tried forcibly to abduct Ilic's son, said the committee statement, as carried by radio amateurs.
Ilic intervened to defend his son, and the terrorists shot him with six bullets. His family brought him to the nearby field hospital of the international force KFOR in Serbia's Kosovo and Metohija province.
Meanwhile, six buses arrived Friday in Kosovska Vitina, acting on orders of the Croatian government, to take away ethnic Croats from the area, the sources said.
"We are leaving in the hope that the situation will change, and we will return when security is the same as it was at the time when it had been established by Serbian police," said a woman of the village of Lepnica as she was boarding a bus.
