Car Wash Ambush: Bullets Fly in Village Dispute
20 Oct
Summary
- Two men fired multiple shots at a car wash facility in Garhi Bazidpur.
- The shooting stemmed from an earlier argument and a physical altercation.
- Police are investigating the incident and registering an Arms Act case.
An incident of firing occurred on Tuesday evening at a car washing facility in the Garhi Bazidpur area of Gurgaon. Two unidentified men allegedly discharged multiple rounds, with bullets hitting a wall, thankfully resulting in no injuries.
The shooting is believed to be a reprisal for an earlier altercation that took place among villagers. Sources indicate that the confrontation began when a villager questioned a group of men about their presence and subsequently slapped one of them. This led to threats of retaliation.
Later that evening, two of the individuals involved in the initial dispute arrived at the car wash center and opened fire on individuals present, including the one who had slapped a suspect. The assailants fled the scene before police arrived. A bullet shell was recovered, and an Arms Act case is being registered.
Personnel from Bhondsi police station and multiple crime units responded to the scene. They are examining CCTV footage and questioning villagers to gather more information about the morning argument and the subsequent shooting.
