New Delhi, Jan 25 (IBNS) : In a daring and broad daylight crime, two bike-borne miscreants shot at a school bus driver and kidnapped a Class I child in New Delhi on Thursday morning, media reports said.

The reports quoted police as saying that no ransom call has been made by kidnappers so far.

The incident took place at around 8 am. According to eyewitness accounts to the police,  two men, wearing helmets, came on a black bike and intercepted the bus of a leading school, which was carrying children.

When the driver resisted, the pillion rider shot at him and entered the bus. He then kidnapped the boy in front of his sister.

There were about 20 students inside the bus,” a senior police officer was quoted by NDTV as saying.

The kidnappers fled towards Uttar Pradesh with the child in their custody.
