Spanish guard killed by Basque separatists
A Spanish civil guard was shot and killed today in a clash with members of Basque separatist group Eta in south-west France, the first death involving the group since it abandoned a cease-fire in June, police said.
Another Spanish officer was taken to hospital with serious injuries after the shooting in Cap-Breton, a resort town on the Atlantic coast, a French police official said. No other details were immediately available.
