Togo football team shot in Angola; 1 dead, 9 hurt (update 3)


LUANDA, Angola (AP): Gunmen in a part of Angola plagued by separatist violence opened fire with machine-guns on a bus carrying Togo to the African Cup of Nations on Friday, killing the driver and wounding at least nine people.

Togo's footballers, two of whom were hit, said they wanted to pull out of the 16-nation tournament, though a member of the Angola organizing committee said it will go ahead as planned from Sunday.
