Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - PODGORICA — A gunman has shot dead at least 10 people, including two children, in southern Montenegro on Wednesday, police say.

It was later confirmed that the attacker had killed himself.

The government has declared three days of national mourning from Thursday with Prime Minister Milojko Spajic describing the shooting as a "terrible tragedy".

The gunman killed members of his own family, two of the restaurant owner's children and also the owner, according to Interior Minister Danilo Saranovic.

Mr Saranovic called the incident a "consequence of disturbed interpersonal relations", according to AFP news agency.

Four people were in a life-threatening condition in hospital after being seriously wounded in the shooting, the agency reported the prime minister as saying.
