KIEV (Reuters) - A man was killed in a shootout with Ukrainian security forces on Sunday after militants made off with presidential election ballot papers from a polling station in the eastern region of Luhansk, media quoted a senior official as saying.
Quoted by Interfax-Ukraine news agency, Deputy Interior Minister Serhiy Yarovoy said the shooting took place after "armed separatists" seized ballot papers at Novoaydar, north of the regional capital Luhansk. He said the dead man's identity was unclear. A second man was wounded.
