A police team headed by Chausa police station's Station House Officer (SHO) Prashant Mishra was attacked by a mob with sticks and other blunt objects prompting the cops to fire three rounds in the air to disperse the attackers who were supporters of the notorious criminal Shahjahan, the SHO said.
There was no casuality or injury to any one, he said.

Shahjahan was wanted in a dozen cases of murder, loot and other offences, the SHO said.
