Saturday, a gunman attempted to shoot a Bulgarian politician during a televised news conference. The video is wild. In it, Ahmed Dogan, the leader of Bulgaria's Movement for Rights and Freedoms – Bulgaria's Turkish party, narrowly escapes getting shot in the head after a gunman runs on stage during a speech and attempts to fire two shots. The gun apparently jammed, giving Dogan time to knock it from the attacker's hands before security stepped in. The gunman, identified as a 25-year-old from the Bulgarian town of Burgas, near the Black Sea, continues to fight, despite being pinned down and having the shit kicked out of him by various security guards and on-lookers. Police also found two knives on the attacker after he was detained.
