A dramatic chase unfolded at a hospital in Bihar’s Siwan when a man with a criminal record opened fire at a security guard while attempting to flee, instead wounding a patient. The incident occurred at a time when a criminal identified as Saddam Hussain surrendered in court today, after which he was brought to the hospital for a medical checkup. The police suspect the man who fired at the guard might have come to kill Saddam Hussain, NDTV reported.
The guard had seen the shooter, Arbaaz Alam, entering the women’s washroom and tried to restrain him.
When the guard attempted to stop him, Alam resisted, prompting the guard to strike him with a baton. Alam then sprinted out of the hospital, pursued by the guard. Once outside, he fired multiple shots, missing the guard but hitting a patient, Alok Tiwari, a local resident. Tiwari is receiving treatment at the hospital and is in stable condition.
Other guards who were at the hospital gate joined in the chase, and together they managed to pin down the accused.
