Unidentified Gunman has killed at least one person and injured another after he attacked a small village near Adado town, the seat of Galmudug State of Somalia.

Confirming the incident to Radio Shabelle, Gadon village administrator Abdi Ahmed said the gunman has escaped the area after shooting the civilian.

Ahmed added that local security forces kicked off a combing operation at the village and its nearby areas in search for the killer who is armed with AK-47 rifle.

The tragic incident happened at Hog-dugaag, a rural area which is located approximately 40 kilometers away from Adado town of Galgaduud region.

Despite an investigation is underway, residents say, the people might have been targeted in revenge for bloody animosity between two fraternal clans in the area.
