Unidentified Gunmen Fire at Ludhiana Property Dealer's Home, Damage VehiclesPreviousNext

In Ludhiana's Shimlapuri area, unidentified assailants fired 10 to 12 rounds outside property dealer Ramesh Kumar's residence, damaging a Ford Figo and a Jeep. The attackers also threw bricks before fleeing. Police have registered a case against four unknown suspects and are investigating, reviewing nearby CCTV footage.
