Police are investigating a shooting near a military convoy in the main city of India-held Kashmir, amid expectations for upcoming talks between the Indian and Pakistani leaders.
It was not immediately clear whether the shots fired Saturday in Srinagar came from two men riding a motorcycle past the convoy, or from patrolling street soldiers who suspected the men were militants.
No casualties were reported. Police Director General Ashok Prasad said authorities were investigating.
