According to sources, three bike-borne miscreants opened two rounds of fire on Rohit Burma, son of a goldsmith, near the bus stand. They also shot at another person as he tried to save Burma.

Soon after the incident, the locals rushed to the spot and admitted the duo at the Community Health Centre (CHC) at Badagan.
On being informed, police reached the spot and seized a pistol from the spot.
