Pakistan's cricket legend Wasim Akram, who was shot at on Wednesday, described his trigger-happy road foe as a coward on the streets of Karachi
Karachi: It was just an accident when I was coming to the stadium. There is lot of rush at this time and I was in the middle lane and a car hit my car from behind. I signaled the driver to come to the side but he tried to make a fool and tried to race off which irritated me a lot.

I got a bit frustrated and chased that car and blocked it and while I was standing and arguing with the driver a person stepped out from the back seat holding a gun and pointed it at me.

But since the traffic had stopped and people recognised me as Wasim Akram, the man than lowered his gun and fired at my car which was very scary.
Wasim Akram
I have shared all details with the police and I am confident they will apprehend the culprit.
Because road rage can happen anywhere in the world be it England, Australia, USA but taking out a gun is not the way to settle such things. And if this person who fired is so brave than he should come forward and face things.
