STORYLINE:
European Union peacekeepers said they exchanged fire Thursday with a suspected war criminal in a town in eastern Bosnia. The suspect "injured himself" when he was unable to escape.
The suspected war criminal's wife died of wounds inflicted in the exchange of fire, hospital officials said.
Bosnian Serb police had initially reported that the Serb man, identified as Dragomir Abazovic, aged 47, was killed. But those first reports were incorrect. The man was seriously wounded and in a critical condition, said local police spokesman Radovan Pejic.
Pejic said EUFOR, the peacekeeping force, began the operation at 9:30 a.m.
The suspected war criminal's wife, Rada, aged 42, and son Dragoljub, aged 12, were also injured in the incident close to Rogatica, about 70 kilometres (40 miles) southeast of the capital Sarajevo, and were taken to a hospital.
A local court in Bosnia had indicted Pejic - a Serb - on war crimes charges.
The 6,500-strong EUFOR force is involved both in the search for fugitive war criminals and in combating organised crime throughout Bosnia.
It took over from a NATO force in 2004.
