Moscow attack: ’Terrorist’ investigations underway after deadly shooting at Russian concert hall

Four people suspected of carrying out a deadly attack on a concert hall in Moscow have been detained, including two following a car chase, a Russian lawmaker said on Saturday. The two were caught in Russia’s Bryansk region, southwest of the capital, lawmaker Alexander Khinshtein said on Telegram. Other suspects fled into a nearby forest on foot, he added. “During the pursuit, shots were fired and the car overturned. One terrorist was detained on the spot, the rest fled into the forest. As a result of the search, a second suspect was found and detained at approximately 3:50 a.m. The search for the others continues,” the lawmaker said. Mr Khinshtein said a pistol, a magazine for an assault rifle and passports from Tajikistan were found in the car.
