Kosovo: Local elections test relations with Serbia Gunman alleges he acted alone in LAX shooting 9 President Jahjaga speaks out against violence PRISTINA, Kosovo (AP) - Hard-line Serbs in northern Kosovo intimidated would-be voters and were suspected of attacking a polling station dur- ing local elections Sunday. The actions underscored Kosovo's strained relations with Serbia, even as both states seek closer ties to the European Union. It was the first time voters in all of Kosovo were choos- ing local councilors and mayors since the country seceded from Serbia in 2008. The participation in the election of minority Serbs in Kosovo was being watched care- fully. The integration of Serbs into Kosovarpolitical life is akey element of an EU-brokered deal between Serbia and Kosovo that seeks to settle their disputes and unlock EU funds. The Serb hard-liners' tactics, however, appeared to suppress voter turnout and raised con- cerns that Serbia had not ful- filled its pledge to stop fueling defiance among Serbs in Kosovo, especially in the north, where they dominate the population. Kosovo President Atifete Jah- jaga warned Serb hard-liners not to undermine the central gov- ernment in Pristina. "Such acts will be met with swift response of the security mechanisms in an attempt to establish rule of law, a necessity in this part of the country," Jah- jaga said in a statement. The comments came after a group of some 30 masked men barged -into the polling station in the late afternoon, smashing windows and tearing up voting material. Associated Press footage showed police sealing off the H,-,, area. It also showed members of the Organization for Secu- rity and Cooperation in Europe, which helped organize the vote in the north, leaving the polling station in their vehicles. The sta- tign was later closed. Serbia's prime minister, Ivica Dacic, urged Serbs in Kosovo's north to defy the threats and the anti-election campaign and cast their ballots. He said par- ticipation in the election is in the interest of the Serb people in Kosovo. "Let us once do something that is in our interest and not in the interest of our enemies," Dacic said. "The fate of Serbs in Kosovo should be in their own hands, and not (Kosovo Prime Minister Hashim) Thaci's or the extremists'." About 1.8 million voters are entitled to vote in 39 munici- palities and elect mayors and local councilors. Voter turn- out in Kosovo stood at 46 percent, excluding the Serb- dominated north, as polls closed at 1800GMT. An AP reporter witnessed Serbs crowding outside poll- ing stations in the northern city of Mitrovica to discourage fel- low Serbs from voting. Posters describing participation in elec- tions as treason also have sprung up in Serb-majority areas. Some Serbs fear the vote vali- dates the secession of Kosovo, which declared independence from Serbia in 2008. The U.S. and the majority of the 28 EU countries recognize the new state, but Serbia rejects Kosovo's independence, as do many Serbs now living in Kosovo. "I can't vote in these elec- tions. To me these are foreign elections," said Zeljko Vuckovic, a Serb resident of Mitrovica. Another Serb, Radomir Milic, was one of the few voters who responded to Serbia's call to elect their leaders in an interna- tionally backed process. "I vote for a better life because if we do not vote we cannot sur- vive here," Milic said. Motives for attack remain unclear as FBI investigation continues LOS ANGELES (AP) - The gunman charged in the deadly shooting at Los Angeles Inter- national Airport lay bloodied and handcuffed on the floor of Terminal 3 after being gunned down by police, but he replied to critical questions that helped authorities lock down the scene. Paul Ciancia, 23, was hauled away moments later on a stretch- er and later heavily sedated for medical reasons, but not before he told investigators he had acted alone when he opened fire in the terminal, a law enforcement offi- cial who has been briefed on the investigation told The Associ- ated Press on Sunday. Ciancia, an unemployed motorcycle mechanic who recently moved to Los Ange- les from the small, blue-collar town of Pennsville, N.J., also told police a friend had dropped him at LAX on Friday just moments before he shot a Transportation Security Administration officer at point-blank range and wound- ed three other people, including two more TSA workers. Officials do not believe that the friend knew of the shooter's plans. Ciancia arrived at the air- port in a black Hyundai and was not a ticketed passenger. Ciancia was under 24-hour armed guard at the hospital Sun- day after being shot four times, the official said. He was sedated for medical reasons, the official said, adding that one gunshot to the mouth blew a molar out of his jaw. Ciancia is facing charges of murder of a federal officer and committing violence at an inter- national airport. The charges could qualify him for the death penalty. It wasn't immediately clear when he would make a first court appearance given his med- ical condition. In court documents and inter- views, authorities spelled out a chilling chain of events, saying Ciancia walked into the airport, pulled a .223-caliber assault rifle from his duffel bag and fired repeatedly at 39-year-old TSA officer Gerardo I. Hernandez. He turned back to see Hernandez move and returned to finish him off, according to surveillance video reviewed by investigators. He then fired on two other uni- formed TSA employees and an airline passenger, who all were wounded, as he moved methodi- cally throughthe security check- point before airport police shot him as panicked travelers hid in stores and restaurants. It wasn't clear why Ciancia targeted TSA officers, but what he left behind indicated he was willing to kill any of them that crossed his path, authorities revealed. The shooter's duffel bag con- tained a handwritten letter signed by Ciancia stating he'd "made the conscious decision to try to kill" multiple TSA employ- ees and that he wanted to "instill fear in their traitorous minds," FBI Agent in Charge David L. Bowdich said. "Black, white, yellow, brown, I don't discriminate," the note read, according to a paraphrase by a law enforcement official briefed on the investigation. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly. The screed also mentioned "fiat currency" and "NWO," possible references to the New World Order, a conspiracy theory that foresees a totalitarian one- world government. The letter also talked about "how easy it is to get a gun into the airport," the law enforce- ment official said. When searched, the suspect had five 30-round magazines, and his bag contained hundreds more rounds in boxes. U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, said on CNN's State of the Union on Sunday that Ciancia's actions show how difficult it is to pro- tect travelers at a massive airport such as LAX. The terminals are open and easily accessible to thousands of people who arrive at large slid- ing glass doors via a broad ring road that fronts the facility and is designed to move people along quickly. "It's like a shopping mall out- side the perimeter, it's almost like an open shopping mall," McCaul said. The FBI has served a search warrant on a Sun Valley resi- dence where Ciancia lived, Ari Dekofsky, a spokeswoman for the FBI's Los Angeles field office, said Sunday. Agents are still interviewing people, she said. Authorities believe the rifle used in the shooting was pur- chased in Los Angeles. Ciancia also had two additional hand- guns that he purchased in Los Angeles, but which weren't at the crime scene, a law enforcement official said. The official, who has been briefed on the inves- tigation, was not authorized to speak publicly. and requested anonymity. The purchases themselves appeared legal, although author- ities were still tracing them, and it's unclear ifthe shooter used his own identification or someone else's, the official said. "He didn't buy them on the street. He didn'tbuythem on the Internet," the official said. "He bought them from a licensed gun dealer - the rifle and the two handguns." Hernandez, a three-year vet- eran of the TSA, moved to the U.S. from El Salvador at age 15, married his sweetheart, Ana, on Valentine's Day in 1998 and had two children. The other two TSA officers wounded in the attack have been released from the hospital. On Sunday, the TSA identified them as James Speer, 54, and Tony Grigsby, 36. 0 .6
