ABBOTTABAD: Two cops and an alleged
outlaw were killed in an exchange of fire in the Mir Alam town in the
limits of the Mirpur Police Station on Wednesday, police sources said.
The
sources said that the Rider Squad including police constables Sardar
Haroon and Waheed were on routine patrol when they came across some
suspected persons and stopped them for body search. They said that one
of the persons opened fire on the cops and triggered an exchange of
fire.
Both the cops were critically injured
and an outlaw was shot dead on the spot. The cops died on way to the
hospital. District Police Officer Abbottabad Karim Khan told The News

outlaws but there was no word about any arrest.
