One youth was injured when unknown men on a two-wheeler fired at him in a crowded road in the central part of the city this morning, police said.
A bullet hit a local youth, identified as Kalu, when a bullet fired by the bikers hit his leg.
Kalu was taking a relative's child to school at that time.
The two men on the motorbike, whom Kalu identified, had some issues with him for long, the police said.
"The bikers fired a couple of rounds before fleeing. One of the witnesses have noted down the number of the two-wheeler. We have launched a search for it," an officer of Kolkata Police's detective department said.
Kalu has been admitted to hospital.
