In a similar incident earlier in the day, a Gujarati woman, identified as Meghna Patel, originally from Jantral village in Vijapur taluka of Gujarat’s Mehsana district, was tragically shot dead in the United States during an alleged robbery attempt at her store.

The shocking incident, which was captured on CCTV, has since circulated widely on social media, triggering grief and outrage among both Indian and local communities.

According to preliminary reports, Meghna Patel had been residing in the United States with her family for several years and was managing a convenience store at the time of the attack.
