Aurangabad, Jan 29:
The City Chowk police have arrested a scrap vendor in a firing incident that occurred on Thursday midnight over parking vehicles in a narrow lane and obstructing the way of the pedestrians.

At the same time, Rajabhai’s driver Akram opened fire on Razzaq, but he was saved narrowly. Rajabhai told Akram to leave the spot. Abdul Jabbar came there and asked Rajabhai about the parked vehicles and a quarrel erupted among both of them. Akram again came there and fire two rounds on Jabbar. One bullet hit his thigh and was seriously injured. Akram fled away from the scene. Injured Jabbar was rushed to the GMCH, and now his condition is stable, informed PI, Sambhaji Pawar.
