"They couldn't succeed and tried to flee. She then raised an alarm following which Rohit began chasing the goons. He sought help from a person going on a bike. Around 300 metres ahead, he caught hold of the snatcher riding the pillion. The other accused whipped out a gun and shot at Rohit," said a police officer.
