Russian Minister Survives Assassination Attempt

VIENNA, Austria - A Russian finance minister was attacked at a reception for the Western Trade Conference last evening. Arkady Shevelenko was attacked on his way to his vehicle while leaving the Hotel Europa. The attackers attempted to coerce the minister into an ambulance, but his own security team fended off the attackers long enough for police to arrive. Four attackers were killed on the scene, and security forces are on the lookout for a second vehicle that eluded pursuers after a high-speed chase along the banks of the Wien.
