Man, two others misbehave with cops, open fire when stopped for not wearing masks in Delhi

New Delhi, Jan 9 (PTI) A 33-year-old man, along with his wife and relative, allegedly misbehaved with two policemen and fired five rounds from a pistol when they were stopped for not wearing masks, police said on Sunday.

Aadesh, who works as a welfare officer, is an advocate by profession. A resident of Patparganj extension, he was travelling in a car along with his wife and cousin during curfew hours on late Saturday night, they said.

A policeman patrolling near Seemapuri Golchakkar stopped the vehicle and asked them the reason for being out so late without masks. This led to a scuffle and another policeman reached the spot, the police said.

Some bottles of liquor were also found at the spot, he said.
