Rousillac residents got a scare on Wednesday night when a stranger bleeding from gunshot wounds turned up at their doorsteps begging for help. Instead of opening their homes to him they called the police. It turned out that the 50-year-old man, of Arouca, had been shot by the police in an alleged exchange of gunfire, but had fled through the bushes along with two accomplices. Police are still searching for the other two men. (SW)
