Jaipur: Two miscreants, who fled Kerala after stealing Rs 45 lakh, opened fire on chasing Rajasthan and Kerala Police teams.
The accused are Danish Khan (23), resident of Haridwar (Uttarakhand) and Shehzad. They fled Kerala after a case for the theft of Rs 45 lakh was registered against them in Ernakulam. Police said both miscreants have been arrested.
