Shots from asault rifles were fired into the building that houses Greece’s conservative party in Athens on Monday with a bullet landing in the office of Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, the New York Times reports.
No one was injured by the gun shots, which came on the heels of several recent bombings targeting media and political figures in Greece.
From the Times:
A bullet shattered the window of the third-floor of the building and was found in the office of Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, according to a police spokesman who said another bullet was found on the roof and nine casings outside the building, which is on a busy thoroughfare near central Athens. Security guards saw two men getting out of a car shortly before 3 a.m. and opening fire at the new Democracy party offices which were empty at the time of the attack, according to the police.
Police did not speculate on the identity of the assailants but state television reported that antiterrorism officers had joined the investigation.
