Three masked miscreants shot dead a 52-year-old Indian-American man, injuring his wife and daughter, in Georgia, US. The Bibb County Sheriff’s Office said Pinal Patel and her family were on their way home after work when three masked men opened fire on Thoroughbred Lane in Georgia last week. Patel resisted the trio and in doing so opened fire on the family. Police said this is the second such incident involving Indians in the US within a week. The incident took place on January 20 on Thoroughbred Lane near Hartley Bridge Road, Georgia.
