An Israeli Border Policeman on the perimeter of a farewell airport ceremony for French President Nicolas Sarkozy apparently shot himself on Tuesday in a incident that did not endanger the visiting leader, Israel Radio said.

The shooting occurred while a military band was playing and went unnoticed by Sarkozy and Israeli leaders at the ceremony. Dark-suited men then quickly ushered Sarkozy and his wife up the stairs of their plane. In a panic, Sarkozy's wife, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, rushed up the stairs ahead of her husband.

Photographs clearly showed Carla get as far from her husband and potential target as quick as her high heels could get her.

...........Something in that.

"At the same time, security guards, with their guns drawn, rushed Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and President Shimon Peres toward their cars. The incident was over within minutes, and Olmert returned and boarded the plane to inform Sarkozy what had transpired, witnesses said. Israel Radio said the soldier was stationed 100 meters to 200 meters away from the plane when the gunshot was fired. Two women soldiers who witnessed the shooting fainted and were treated by medics. Police spokesman, Micky Rosenfeld, denied reports that there had been an assassination attempt on the French leader. There were conflicting reports as to the source of the incident. Police and rescue workers initially said the shooting was an apparent suicide, but according to other reports, the officer's weapons was discharged accidentally when he fainted during the ceremony."
