Dacic said the incident was being treated as a terrorist attack. Law enforcement officers are trying to determine whether the attacker acted alone, the official added. Serbian Prime Minister Milos Vucevic called the incident a "crazy move" and said that Serbian authorities will be able to respond decisively to the threat of terrorism. Defense Minister Bratislav Gasic also condemned the attack and expressed his support for the interior ministry officers.

Earlier in the day, Serbian Interior Minister Ivica Dacic said that an unidentified person shot a police officer with a crossbow in front of the embassy and was killed by return fire.

"As a safety precaution, we detained several other people who were near police facilities, and we are determining whether they are connected to this case. There is a suspicion that we are talking about people known to the security services, we are talking about the Wahhabi movement, but this is unconfirmed information. We have increased security measures in the city," Dacic noted.
