U.S. MARINE STILL IN HOSPITAL FOLLOWING SHOOTING IN ALBANIA

A U.S. Marine wounded in a shooting in Albania last week remains in serious but stable condition while a second has returned to duty, the military said Wednesday.

Lance Cpl. Anthony Miller, 19, of Monroeville, Ala., remained in intensive care, said a spokeswoman for the U.S. Army's Landstuhl Hospital in southern Germany.

Lance Cpl. Bobby E. Martin, 19, of Fayetteville, N.C., was released from the hospital Sunday.

Both men are from the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit based at Camp Lejeune, N.C.

They were wounded Friday in a shooting at a bar in Durres, Albania, where the Norfolk-based amphibious transport dock Ponce was moored for the first joint exercise involving NATO and Albanian forces.
