Three people were killed and two injured after armed police intervened in a shootout sparked by an argument between a man and his father in central Spain, police said. The gunman, his neighbour and a policeman were shot dead at a house on a road between the villages of Argamasilla de Calatrava and Villamayor de Calatrava near Ciudad Real, about 230 km south of Madrid, a police spokesperson said. The incident stemmed from a domestic dispute between the 50-year-old shooter and his father, 81. When the neighbour tried to intervene, the gunman began shooting. A special operations team from Ciudad Real was called out and shot the gunman. -- Reuters
