Two bike-borne miscreants opened fire in a daring robbery outside the official residences of Bihar minister Ashok Choudhary and Leader of Opposition in Bihar Assembly Tejashwi Yadav in the high security zone of Patna early Thursday morning.
According to the police, the attackers attempted to rob a youth, named Rahul, at gunpoint. The victim handed over his belongings. A shot was also fired, but Rahul escaped unhurt.
Patna City (Central) SP Diksha confirmed the incident and said that the Police have recovered a bullet shell from the spot and are reviewing CCTV footage to identify the suspects. Raids are going on to arrest them.
The incident, which took place a day before Prime Minister Narendra Modi's scheduled visit, has once again brought attention to the fragile state of law and order in Bihar.
