Six Czech tourists have been wounded after their bus was hit by gunfire while travelling through south-eastern France, a prosecutor says, reports ABC News.
The bus was carrying 75 Czech tourists from Spain to the Czech Republic when the incident described as an "isolated act" occurred on a highway near the Drôme département (county) on Saturday night.
"An initial shot smashed the front windscreen and a second exploded the rear window of the vehicle a few seconds later," Valence public prosecutor Alex Perrin said.
Six passengers were hurt by broken glass, including a woman whose eye was seriously injured, and a child.
Mr Perrin said initial investigations had revealed the shooter used a hunting rifle. One of the bullets was found inside the bus.
"We don't have any reason to believe this bus was targeted instead of any other," Mr Perrin said.
