An attacker tried to crash his car through the gates
of an army barracks in southern Belgium on Monday but fled in the vehicle after
shots were fired, a government official said.
The incident occurred near the French-speaking town
of Namur, south of Brussels. The suburb of Flawinne is the site of one of
Belgium's major military barracks, home to the 2nd Commando Battalion.
Defense Cabinet chief Lt Gen Claude Van De Voorde
told The Associated Press: "One car tried to get into the barracks. There
was one person in the car. He fled."
