Three people, including two children, suffered gunshot wounds in North Nazimabad’s Wahid Colony on Monday. According to rescue officials, the injured were identified as Raheel, 7, Shahadat Hussain, 14, and Ahad, 20. They were rushed to the Abbasi Shaheed Hospital.

SHO Shahid Adam said that according to the initial investigation, the firing took place during a dispute over loud music. Witnesses told police that an argument had broken out after a man identified as Shero was found playing music at a high volume in his car, and another individual, Imran, asked him to lower the volume.

The verbal altercation escalated, and the suspects allegedly called others before opening fire. Police claimed that Shero was reportedly under the influence of drugs at the time. They have launched a search operation to arrest those involved.
