According to the police, a dispute over the purchase of shoes sparked fighting between two groups in the vicinity of the Sihani Gate police station in Ghaziabad.
Two persons had to be taken to the neighbouring hospital after the situation became so violent and injured two others.
During this argument, one shot was also fired, according to social media reports. Notably, Section 144 was implemented across the state late at night following the murder of Atiq Ahmed, and all the police received instructions to remain alert and watchful. In spite of this, there was a crowd of rowdy people in Sihani Gate, Ghaziabad.
A man was shown wielding a gun in a video that circulated on social media, threatening others, and requesting that they step aside.
In a statement, SP Nandgram, said: “Information was received that some boys were indulging in fighting at Gandhi Nagar market. Police team reached at the spot immediately. During primary investigation, it came to notice that two parties got into an argument over purchase of shoes. Some boys have beaten up shop owners. Necessary legal steps are being taken in this regard. Police have formed two teams to nab the accused. Some witnesses also said that one shot was fired during the fighting. We are also investigating that angle and the case will be solved soon.”
