MOGADISHU, Somalia — A producer at a Somali radio station says gunmen shot dead the station’s director in the chaotic capital, Mogadishu.

Mu’awiye Ahmed Mudey, a producer at Shabelle radio, said unidentified gunmen killed Hassan Osman Abdi on Saturday. He was on his way home. The 29-year-old father of three had worked at the station for three years.

Attacks on journalists are common in war-ravaged Somalia. Two journalists were killed last year, and there have been numerous attacks in the northern semiautonomous region of Puntland.
