BRATISLAVA, Aug 30 (Reuters) - A gunman killed six people and wounded 13 others in the Slovak capital Bratislava on Monday, Slovak media reported.

"There were 13 injured and six casualties, four women and two men," news agency TASR quoted Dominika Sulkova from the national rescue service as saying.

Police declined to comment, saying they would provide information later. The Devinska Nova Ves district of Bratislava where the shooting took place was sealed off by police roadblocks, television TA3 reported. (Reporting by Jan Lopatka; Editing by Charles Dick)
