He added that he saw two men running away when he looked around.

The police initially said the incident might have been caused by a stray bullet. However, later they learnt that there was a failed robbery attempt across the street.
A security guard at a restaurant fired a shot to ward off street robbers, who had already deprived people of mobile phones in nearby shops.

Police arrested the guard and seized his weapon.

Saifullah, the restaurant owner, said the guard had fired the shot into the ground and it was yet to be determined if his bullet hit the child.

The child’s body was moved to Abbasi Shaheed Hospital for medicolegal examination.
