Shooters Kill 2 at Golden Dawn Headquarters in Athens
Two gunmen on a motorcycle sprayed fire at the Golden Dawn headquarters, in Athens, Friday evening.
They killed two people, who had been standing outside, and wounded a third.
It is not known who carried out the attack.
There are strong fears that the neo fascist Golden Dawn party will use the shooting as an excuse for violent actions.
The group has already been in trouble for violent acts, in the past.
Public Order Minister Nikos Dendias warned that, "We will not allow the country to become an arena for scores to be settled, for whatever reason".

Taliban Leader Killed in Drone Strike
Hakimullah Mehsud, the leader of the Taliban in Pakistan, was killed by a drone strike, on Friday.
His death was confirmed by the US, Pakistan, and the Taliban.
Four missiles struck the vehicle he was in, killing four other people.
Pakistan complained about the US launching another drone strike, in the country.
However, just days before the Pakistani government had complained that the US wasn't doing enough to help against terrorist forces.
Mehsud had been leading the Taliban, since 2009, when his predecessor was killed by a drone strike.
Officials believe that he is responsible for the deaths of more than one thousand people and for hundreds of terrorist attacks.
It is doubtful that his death will hamper the Taliban for long.
