BISHKEK (Reuters) - Police guarding the U.S. embassy
in Kyrgyzstan shot a naked man who approached the site
"in a threatening manner," the embassy said Monday.

"At approximately 3:00 a.m., a seemingly disturbed
naked man approached the front guard booth of the
embassy. The man threw a heavy object at the booth,
cracking one of the windows," the embassy said in a
statement.

"Local ... police fired two warning shots. When he
continued to ignore the policemen's commands, they
fired two shots at the man, wounding him once in the
leg."

The embassy did not identify the man and said he was
in hospital in a stable condition.

The Central Asian nation is home to a U.S. military
airbase used for operations in nearby
Afghanistan. Last December, a U.S. serviceman shot
dead a Kyrgyz truck driver at the base who the United
States said threatened the airman with a knife.
