Tiger Shroff Escapes Gunfire Injury in Mumbai Shooting Incident

Mumbai, October 19 (Daily Kiran) : In a shocking incident in Mumbai’s Juhu area, Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff narrowly escaped a gunfire attack on October 18. The Mumbai police revealed that Shroff’s quick reflexes saved his life as he leaned forward in his car just moments before shots were fired. This action prevented him from being hit by the bullets.

According to police officials, the assailants opened fire while Shroff was in his vehicle. He managed to lean forward, which ultimately shielded him from the gunfire. However, he did sustain an injury from a fragment of glass during the attack.

The police reported that after the shooting, the three assailants fled on a motorcycle, making their way towards Andheri railway station via Mithibai College and SV Road. Once they reached the station, they dispersed in different directions. Authorities are currently investigating their escape routes and activities.

Forensic analysis revealed that the attackers used a homemade pistol, also known as a “copy piece,” to fire at Shroff’s car. They discharged a total of seven rounds, with five bullets striking the vehicle while two missed their target.

Sources indicated that after firing the fifth shot, one of the shooters approached the passenger side and attempted to shoot Shroff at close range. However, the weapon reportedly jammed, preventing the assailant from firing successfully. This malfunction allowed Shroff to avoid serious injury.

The incident occurred around 7 PM as Shroff was returning from a football ground. During the attack, the driver was injured, and another bystander was also shot. The Juhu police have registered a case against three unidentified individuals in connection with the shooting incident involving Tiger Shroff.
