Khalid W.  Hassan, 23, a reporter and interpreter, was shot while driving to work in the south central Seiydia district, the newspaper reported.

The Times reported that the journalist called his mother a half hour later to say, “I’ve been shot.” The family notified the newspaper that Hassan later died.
