A security guard was killed by miscreants late last night after they raided a cable wire manufacturing factory at Serampore in Hooghly district.
Vinod Pandey (51), the security guard, rushed to the spot on hearing deafening sound when a group of miscreants were hurling bombs near the factory at Ghoramara area.
Pandey, who was shot at from point blank range, was declared dead when he was taken by some factory workers to Serampore Walsh Hospital.
