| [DAWN] Renowned playwright Asghar Nadeem Syed was injured Tuesday when unknown motorcyclists opened fire on his vehicle in Lahore, DawnNews reported. The old "unknown motorcyclists" trick... According to sources, Syed was traveling in his car near Shaukat Khanum Hospital when person or persons unknown opened fire on him. [BANG! BANG! BANGETY BANG!] Upon hearing the gunshots, he ducked. Usually, if you can hear the shots it's too late to duck. I suppose it can help with subsequent shots, though. However, he was hit in the right arm and shoulder. "Aaaiiieee! My arm! My shoulder!" Following the attack, the gunnies fled from the scene. "Let us depart post haste, Mahmoud!" Meanwhile, ...back at the dirigible, the pilot and the copilot had both hit the silk. Jack!Cynthia exclaimed. Do you know how top drive one of these things? Jack wiped some of the blood from his knuckles. No,he said. Do you?... Syed called Rescue 1122 from his cell phone and reported the attack. "Hello? Rescue 1122?" "Nah. Y'got the wrong number. This is 1123!" The rescue personnel arrived at the scene and shifted him to Doctor's Hospital. Syed was being imparted emergency treatment. "Hmmm... It looks like a subdural haematoma!" "I was shot in the arm!" |
