Macedonian police find another weapons stash

SKOPJE, Macedonia: The interior ministry confirmed on Friday (May 14th) that 
another big weapons stash - including munitions and explosives - was seized in 
an operation in Novo Selo late Thursday. 

Four people were arrested. 

The interior ministry says they appear to be linked to a group of four killed 
in a police shootout near Radusa and Rasce, by the Macedonian-Kosovo border, 
early Wednesday. 

That case also involved suspected weapons trafficking. (Makfax, MIA - 14/05/10)
