In a shocking incident in Patna's Ranitalab area, three individuals were shot by unidentified bike-borne assailants during a cricket award ceremony, according to police on Thursday.

While the injured, identified as Anjani Singh, Dharmendra, and Raja Kumar, are now out of danger, the police have launched a manhunt for the perpetrators. Six bullets and one spent cartridge were recovered from the scene.
