LUDHIANA, NOV 8: Ludhiana police are investigating an armed attack targeting journalist Navneet Kaur and her husband, Gagan Arora, who were fired upon by an unidentified gunman in the early hours of Sunday. The incident unfolded as the couple was returning from a festive outing in the city’s South City vicinity.
The altercation began near Gate No. 8 of the Punjab Agricultural University campus, where a masked suspect on a white scooter deliberately obstructed the journalists’ car. After a brief verbal confrontation, the suspect produced a handgun and opened fire on the vehicle, forcing the couple to flee at high speed.
The gunman chased the victims’ car along Ferozepur Road toward Nanaksar Gurdwara, firing a second round of shots during the pursuit before fleeing the area. Neither occupant suffered physical harm during the pursuit.
Senior police officials confirmed that an official case has been registered regarding the assault. Teams are examining security camera footage along the South City and Ferozepur Road corridors to identify the vehicle and track down the perpetrator.
