French Envoy Slain in Uganda

A French diplomat was shot to death today by intruders who broke into his home, a French Embassy spokesman said.

The spokesman identified the diplomat as Andre Dalpra, an administrative attache at the embassy. He said he did not know the diplomat’s age. The spokesman, who talked on condition of anonymity, said assailants broke through a window in the attache’s house before dawn and shot the diplomat when he came to investigate the noise.
