MOSCOW (AP) -Dynamo Moscow says its players were shot at from paintball guns after practice at their training camp outside Moscow on Friday.

The club says that it would use all legal means to find those responsible and bring them to court.

Dynamo midfielder Alan Gatragov told the RIA Novosti news agency that a group of fans in camouflage fired a barrage of paintballs at the players and staff. Gatagov said that he was hit in the head and many players were also targeted.

The fans were apparently unhappy with the team's performance this season. Dynamo is in 13th place in the 16-team Russian league with eight losses from the first 11 games.
