In a shocking display of brazen criminality, armed miscreants unleashed a hail of bullets in broad daylight at Salem Pur village under Kasna police station limits in Greater Noida. The incident, which unfolded on a quiet afternoon, sent waves of panic rippling through the local community, prompting an immediate police response.
Authorities received a frantic call via Dial 112 reporting gunfire targeting an individual. By the time officers from Kasna station arrived at the scene, the perpetrators had vanished, leaving behind shell casings and stunned witnesses. ADCP Greater Noida Sudhir Kumar confirmed that preliminary investigations revealed the attack involved a group of youths who fired multiple rounds at a residence.
Fortunately, no one was injured in the assault, a fact that local residents attribute to sheer luck. Family members and villagers recounted how the assailants, riding two motorcycles, pulled up to the house and opened fire without provocation. CCTV footage captured the entire episode, showing four helmeted men executing the daring shootout before speeding away.
Police have swiftly registered an FIR and launched a manhunt based on the video evidence. The motive, according to ADCP Kumar, stems from a simmering personal feud. It emerged that the brother-in-law of a village resident had a heated argument with a member of the victim’s family just days prior. This altercation appears to have escalated into today’s violent retaliation.
As forensic teams comb the site for clues and cyber experts analyze the footage, residents remain on edge. The incident underscores the growing menace of gun violence in suburban areas, where old grudges are increasingly settled with firearms. Law enforcement vows to apprehend the culprits soon, urging the public to share any leads. Greater Noida police have ramped up patrols in the area to restore calm and prevent further escalations.
