Three minors have been taken into custody after an 18-year-old named Afroz was allegedly shot in the head by his friend while playing the mobile game PUBG in Patna’s Phulwari Sharif area on Monday night.
According to Phulwari Sharif Station House Officer (SHO) Masood Ahmed Haidari, the three minors detained were all friends of the victim. Afroz was immediately taken to AIIMS Patna but was declared dead upon arrival.
Police said that Afroz and one of his friends were playing the game when another friend suddenly shot him from behind. There was no argument before the attack.
Initial investigations suggest that the shooting was linked to a personal dispute between Afroz and one of his friends over a romantic matter. Officers believe the two had previous disagreements over the same issue.
Police are continuing their investigation to determine the exact motive and sequence of events.
