History-Sheeter Arrested After Brief Gunfight in Faridabad Police OperationPreviousNext

Faridabad police arrested Sonu, a history-sheeter wanted in multiple theft and housebreaking cases, following a brief gunfight near Machhagar village early Thursday. During a joint operation, police set up barricades after receiving information about his movement. Sonu attempted to flee on a motorcycle but fell and fired at officers, injuring himself in the leg. A country-made pistol, motorcycle, mobile phone, and Aadhaar card were recovered. PSI Deepak Lohan was unharmed due to his bulletproof jacket. Investigation continues.
