Israel's envoy to Ethiopia was found in his hotel room bleeding from a gunshot wound and Ethiopian police said on Wednesday he appeared to have shot himself. "There was no indication that other parties were involved in the injuries suffered by the ambassador," Ethiopian police said in a statement read on state-run television. Security guards heard the shot and found Ambassador Doron Grossman in his room at the Addis Ababa Hilton, bleeding from his head with his gun lying nearby. An Israeli security source said the shooting, which left Grossman in critical condition, "appeared to have a personal background". A spokesman for Israel's Foreign Ministry said a team was being sent to Ethiopia "to check the circumstances of the event".
