In a shocking incident, two men who attempted to shoot Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff were found to have misfired a gun in their hotel room in Mumbai. The suspects, identified as Phool Singh and Rehan Singh, checked into a modest hotel in Andheri East on October 14 and remained there until October 18, just hours before the shooting occurred in Juhu.
During their stay, the suspects reportedly conducted reconnaissance missions, leaving the hotel daily to scout locations for the attack. They concealed their identities, claiming to be from Hisar, Haryana. The hotel staff were unaware of the misfire incident until police arrived two days after the suspects checked out.
On October 20, police apprehended three individuals in Kota, Rajasthan, who were allegedly involved in the planning of the attack. These men were attempting to escape to Nepal when they were arrested on a train. The suspects were later transferred to Mumbai police custody for further investigation.
The shooting incident took place on the evening of October 18, when the assailants fired at Shroff's vehicle, injuring his driver and a bystander. The police reported that five to six rounds were discharged during the attack. A motorcycle believed to have been used by the shooters was discovered abandoned in Andheri shortly after the incident.
Authorities have initiated a case against the suspects under the Arms Act and charges of attempted murder. As investigations continue, police are working to uncover more details about the suspects' motives and connections to the crime.
