One of the fatalities was the 53-year-old president of the shooting club, and the other was his 43-year-old acquaintance, an employee of the club.

The three suspects arrived at the shooting gallery between 6.45 and 7.15 p.m. One of them stayed in a car while the two others entered the building.

One of the two, a member of the club, asked the head of the club for permission to carry out target practice, which was granted.

It is not clear what happened next, but the club president was killed with several shots.

The other victim apparently arrived at the shooting range as the murderers were trying to bury the body, and they killed him in cold blood.

Tens of thousands of forints were also taken from the shooting gallery. Each of the three suspects has a criminal record.

Garamvlgyi would not divulge further details, but said Gy r county police will hold a press briefing today."
