Three alleged shooters linked to the firing incident involving Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff’s car have been detained at Rajasthan’s Kota railway station, sources said on Monday.
The suspects were reportedly travelling by train when the Rajasthan Anti-Gangster Task Force (AGTF) and Kota City Police apprehended them during a joint operation.
A juvenile is among the three detained individuals, according to sources.

According to the complaint, the incident occurred around 7 PM as Shroff returned by car after playing football. Two unidentified assailants allegedly approached the vehicle as it exited the school grounds and turned left.
