Gaya (Bihar): Five people including two women were injured in clashes which erupted between two groups in Tutwari Colony here, said Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Rajiv Mishra.

“There were reports of clashes and stone-pelting between two groups in which five people including two women got injured. It is, however, still unclear under what circumstances the firing took place and by whom,” Mishra told reporters here on Thursday.
