Patna, Dec 21 A female constable was shot at by an unidentified man in Patna’s Marine Drive area, said police on Thursday.
The incident happened on Wednesday night. The victim was identified as Pammy Khatoon, a constable of Bihar Police deployed at Patna Police line. She along with her friend and sub-inspector in Purnea, Shabana Azmi, went to Marine Drive around 10 p.m to make reels when the incident happened.
