Medical students, shop owners clash in Bihar, at least 10 injured

Several chemist shops were put on fire by a group of medical students of Darbhanga Medical College in Bihar on Friday.

Sub-Divisional Police Officer (SDPO) Krishna Kumar said, “On Friday night, after an argument between a student of Darbhanga Medical College and the shopkeeper at the chemist, a group of students set several chemist shops on fire.” The fire at the chemist shops was so terrible that the whole sky turned red and a gas cylinder exploded that the entire area was shaken with the explosion, added Kumar.

On receiving information, the fire brigade reached the spot and started dousing the fire and four personnel have been injured during the incident.

SDPO further added, “When the neighbouring locals opposed the act of medical students, the students started pelting stones at the people, which turned into heavy stone pelting from both the sides.” According to the people present at the spot, during the fight, the sound of firing and bombs was also heard.
