BBC producer killed in Somalia
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4251191.stm
Kate Peyton, 39, and reporter Peter Greste had just arrived in the capital Mogadishu when she was hit.

She was taken to hospital, where she had an operation on a bullet wound to her back, but died later of internal bleeding, the BBC said.

Mr Greste was not injured in the shooting.

Details about the incident were still unclear, but the BBC said it was believed to have happened outside the Sahafi Hotel.
