Bullet holes found in cars near a children’s playground have prompted local representatives in Zagreb’s Ferenščica neighborhood to demand an urgent response to street gunfire.
The Ferenščica Local Council, acting on a proposal from its president, Danko Knobl, asked the Peščenica-Žitnjak district council to seek immediate action from city authorities or the ministry responsible for the case.
The council said the shooting had put residents’ lives at risk, especially children playing in nearby streets. It also requested a meeting with the chief of the nearby police station.
The Peščenica-Žitnjak district council subsequently adopted a conclusion confirming the request. The details were set out in a document published on the official local-government proceedings website.
