Former Serb Town

NPR's Tom Gjelten reports from Sarajevo that United Nations officials there are reporting an atmosphere of chaos and anarchy today in two Serb-populated suburbs that will soon come under the control of the Muslim-dominated Bosnian government. Fires are raging in both places, with reports of widespread theft and looting. Most Serb residents have already fled the area. Many of those remaining are asking NATO troops to protect them from local thugs.
