A gunman wounded an American aid worker and his 10-year-old daughter on a beach a mile north of Nouakchott, the Mauritanian capital, police said. Government officials ruled out any political
motivation for the shootings. Police said the beach was frequented by robbers and was known to be dangerous. The assailant fled, and police made no arrests. Norman Ray of Alabama,

were not life-threatening. MORE TO READ
