Shots fired as Sri Lanka political crisis escalates

Sri Lanka police said two people were injured Sunday when shots were fired in Colombo, as a constitutional crisis sparked by Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe's sacking turned violent. Bodyguards for petroleum minister Arjuna Ranatunga fired live rounds at a mob loyal to President Maithripala Sirisena after the group tried to take the cabinet member hostage, police said.
