MOSCOW — A deadly shooting erupted near the fortresslike headquarters of Russia’s Federal Security Service in central Moscow on Thursday evening, the security agency said in a statement that also reported several people had been wounded. Russian news reports said up to three people had been killed.
“An unknown person opened fire near building #12 on the Bolshaya Lubyanka street,” the security service statement said, according to the Interfax news agency. “Some people were injured.”
The statement also said that the assailant had been “neutralized” and was being identified.
The Izvestia news site said that Thursday’s shooting broke out in the reception area of the headquarters.
