The incident is of June 27 from Bawana where a robbery of a motorbike was reported and immediately the beat staff head constable Jasbir and constable Dinesh started chasing the criminals.
When the criminal saw Dinesh chasing him he took out a pistol and opened fire at him.
“I did not use my pistol as it was a public place and others present in the area might have got hurt. I kept chasing him with a stone in my hand. He fired at me and luckily the bullet missed me,” Constable Dinesh told IANS.
Though at that point, the criminals escaped but later the duo identified as Depak and Rahul, both residents of Sonipat, Haryana were arrested.
