An American style shootout, which killed a young polytechnic student, has happened near Tambaram in Chennai. Thalambur police have arrested one of his friends, and search is underway over the accused who ran away with the gun. This Hollywood style shot and run has created panic among the Vedamangalam residents. Police and the public are unaware and confused about how a young boy could get hold of a gun and was also able to shoot the other boy right on the forehead like in movies.
What happened in Vedamangalam for a young student to be shot dead?
Mukesh Kumar is a third-year student in a polytechnic college. He and his two close friends Vijay and Udaya, who are brothers, were playing video games in his house. His parents were out of work, and these youngsters, as usual, continued with their video game. Udaya was playing outside the home while Vijay and Mukesh Kumar were playing inside the house. Suddenly Udaya has heard a gunshot and saw Vijay run away from the house. He went inside only to see Mukesh on a pool of blood and a bullet hole on his forehead.
Hearing the gunshot, the neighbors rushed into the house and took Mukesh to a private hospital. Then he was taken to Chrompet government hospital and also to Chennai Rajiv Gandhi hospital. But on the way, he died pathetically. Thalambur police are investigating Udaya, and a search is on for Vijay. Only Vijay, who was allegedly alone with Mukesh, can reveal the truth of what happened and how he was able to have a gun to shoot Mukesh.
