Two days after a Ford Endeavour occupant opened fire at a Toyota Fortuner driver following a minor collision near Landran village, police are yet to trace the accused.
Identified as Amrik Singh, 35, the accused had fired at the victim and his friend again the next day at Prime City Society, Kharar, when they had traced his car. The accused had then fled in a Swift car.
Victim, Gurpreet Singh, 44, a panch of Landran village, had said that on Monday night, he was returning from Mohali with his family when the accused’s car collided with his vehicle.
