A Real Shootout On The Links

RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) -
Brazil's smooth-talking Central Bank chief Arminio Fraga found himself dodging more than reporters' questions at a chic Rio golf club, when security guards got involved in a shootout with trespassers.

The banker was playing golf with his son Silvio and a nephew at the seventh hole, some 650 feet away from the flying bullets, but he did not get hurt, a bank spokeswoman confirmed Monday.

"He was there but it really wasn't that dramatic,'' the Central Bank spokeswoman told Reuters.

Club officials said they were unable to confirm details of the incident.

According to a columnist in newspaper O Globo, the trespassers opened fire on the security guards who then called in reinforcements and chased them into the nearby woods, where the attackers disappeared.

Shootouts where bystanders get injured by stray bullets are common in violence-ridden Rio, but they rarely take place outside the city's teeming shantytowns.
