Georgino Orellana
Shooting
A gunman fatally shot a journalist in the head as he was leaving a television studio in the city of San Pedro Sula.
Honduran police spokesman Hector Ivan Mejia said 48-year-old Georgino Orellana had just finished anchoring his news show and was leaving TV-Honduras' building Tuesday night when a gunman approached and shot him once in the head. Mejia didn't say whether Orellana's death was tied to his work as a journalist.
