A father and a son were fatally wounded in a fight in a polling station in Malatya province in Southeastern Turkey, as the Turkish agency DHA reports.

The victims are Hassan Aktas and Ilia Aktas and were shot in the school that served as a polling station.

As the DHA says, the tragic incident occurred at 10:30′ in the morning and began with a verbal conflict of opposing teams that evolved into a fight, with some pulling out guns and eventually shooting the two people.
