"Profuse bleeding has taken place due to gunshot injuries in her chest and shoulder. Her condition is very critical," said Dr Vikash Singh as quoted by TOI, who is treating Alia at a private hospital in Ara.
Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP) Parichay Kumar and Ara Sadar SDPO, along with Town Police Station SHO Devraj Rai, visited the scene.
"As per our initial investigation, it is clear that the injured girl was not the actual target of the miscreants. She was accidentally shot while standing on the balcony of her house, observing the quarrel between two rival groups of anti-social elements from a nearby colony. The incident occurred around 9.30pm on Friday. Some of the accused have been identified and raids are on to arrest them," the ASP said as quoted by Times of India.
