Chandigarh, March 5 -- A gunshot was accidentally fired by a valet driver in the basement parking lot of the Elante mall on Tuesday evening.

According to the police, two individuals from Mohali had visited the Nexa showroom in the mall to check out a car. They handed over their vehicle to Sahil, a valet driver working at Nexa. Unaware that the car contained a licensed firearm, Sahil picked up the weapon out of curiosity, leading to an accidental discharge. The bullet struck a nearby parked car, causing minor damage.

Upon receiving information, police teams rushed to the scene and initiated an investigation. Authorities have confirmed that legal action will be taken against the valet driver once a formal complaint is lodged.
