-------------------------------------------------------

In Zürich, a gunman who wounded three people after opening fire during
prayers at an Islamic center in Zürich has been found dead a short
distance from the shooting. Swiss police say the gunman apparently
committed suicide. The police have not identified the shooter. A
worshiper who was a witness to the shooting says the three wounded
victims were Somalis and that the Islamic center was frequently used as
a mosque by Zürich's Somali community.
