    Argentine governor dies of shot to head

    BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — The spokesman for a southern Argentine state says its governor has died of a shot to the head.

    Julian Goinhex says Rio Negro Gov. Carlos Soria was celebrating the new year near the city of General Roca when he was killed.

    Goinhex gave no further details about what happened.

    The 62-year-old Soria was a member of the nation's governing party.

    (This version CORRECTS governor's age as 62.)

      Assassinated is probably more like it.

        Assassinated? Are you kidding? Bullets reign down from the heavens all of the time. This governor merely had a bad day.Ok... the sarcasm is over. How about "No #$%$ sherlock". Is that better?

        Best comment yet - applies to most Yahoo stories these days. 20-something writers trying to give their editors, who are equally dense, something to post.

        I wonder how much the "journalist" had to pay to have this article published, surely not even Yahoo in its utter disregard for its users would pay for this junk.

      The author of this story must be the shooter, he seems to be in a hurry, he forgot to write THE STORY.
      • LuAnn 4 mths ago
        I agree! I have read better written stories by kids in middle school. Yahoo needs to hire REAL journalist.
      • JB 4 mths ago
        You MAY have noted that it is an AP wire report, not something written by a Yahoo (perhaps a #$%$ yahoo) journalist. Point your accusations where they should be going.

        He might have been dodging bullets!

    • Not Slick willy  •  4 mths ago
      This story sounds as if it were written by seven year old child!
    • keiselsbeard  •  4 mths ago
      I think a twitter account allows more words than this story. It may as well just said someone in argentina was dead
    • Margie  •  Burleson, Texas  •  4 mths ago
      Why even bother? There is no story here....what has happened to journalism?
    • The Book Collector  •  4 mths ago
      The shooter then jumped from the balcony, breaking his leg...
    • Youth In Asia  •  Dalton, Georgia  •  4 mths ago
      Now was it an assassination or just a freak stray bullet?
    • Katmandoo  •  4 mths ago
      Yahew......Please upgrade your staff of third grade reporters and editors.......actually having a paid staff won't break you.

    • ROBERT  •  4 mths ago
      Why even print the story if you dont have any more details than that?
    • Crocobaur  •  4 mths ago
      I like how this story leaves a lot to imagination... :-)
