В киевском кафе во время игры в "русскую рулетку" застрелился мужчина
Вчера в Киеве во время игры в «русскую рулетку» застрелился молодой мужчина.
Как сообщила пресс-офицер Голосеевского райуправления столичной милиции Юлия Мустош, инцидент произошел около 22.00 в кафе-баре «Эмма».
По ее словам, компания из пяти мужчин в возрасте от 30 до 40 лет отдыхала в этом заведении. В какой-то момент один из мужчин предложил друзьям сыграть в «русскую рулетку», но те отказались. Тогда он достал револьвер, оставил в нем только один патрон, остальные изъяв. После этого мужчина крутанул барабан, приставил ствол револьвера к виску и нажал на спусковой крючок. «Прозвучал выстрел и молодой мужчина рухнул на пол», - отметила Ю.Мустош.
По ее словам, сейчас выясняется, откуда у мужчины оружие.
Как установлено, погибший является киевлянином, проживал один.
Решается вопрос, возбуждать ли уголовное дело. Однако, как отметили в милиции, скорее всего, дело возбуждено не будет, поскольку этот случай подпадает под квалификацию самоубийство.
