Officer Fatally Shot by Son in Shocking Home Incident

Tragedy struck a family on Friday afternoon when a police officer was shot and killed by his son inside their residence. The incident, which occurred around 1:30 pm, prompted an immediate response from local law enforcement.

Upon arrival, officers found the police officer suffering from a severe chest wound. He was rushed to Raj Medicity hospital but tragically succumbed to his injuries during treatment. In a devastating turn of events, the son, after allegedly shooting his father, retreated into his room and died by suicide using the same pistol, sustaining a head injury.

Authorities have registered a case at the Singjamei police station and are actively investigating the circumstances surrounding this profound tragedy. While the immediate sequence of events is being pieced together, the underlying reasons for the son's actions are yet to be determined. Both bodies have been transferred to the Regional Institute of Medical Science hospital morgue for further examination.
