It was a mess, women, bystanders etc were all could be seen running to find some safe spot. Suddenly a bullet came in on the 2nd floor making a hole in the window. At this spot every 1 in the restaurant laid down. I called 15 (our version of 911, supposedly) and informed the police which came in 5 minutes after the shootout which lasted around 3-4 minutes hardly.

Later it was learned through news that a political figure (who I also saw firing) was attacked by assassins of a rival party but he and his private guards repelled the attack. No casualties happened but it was indeed a scary incident.
Where do you live?
