In what can be called as a ghastly incident to prove the increasing racism in United States, two Telugu engineers Srinivas Kuchibhotla and Alok Madasani were shot when a white man (navy officer) Adam Wade Purinton aged 51 years got into verbal dispute exhibiting his hatred against East and then fired bullets at Austin’s Bar & Grill in Olathe, KS. While Srinivas is said to be in critical condition, Alok is declared dead. One more person Mr Ian Grillot trying to stop Purinton is also shot in the shoulder.

As per reports, cops arrested Adam Wade Purinton, five hours after shooting. They say, he was suffering with a stress disorder and is in serious illness. He reportedly yelled, ‘get out of my country, you terrorists’ before firing the gun.

Srinivas and Alok tried to evade the place when bartender threw Purinton out from the place. But, he waited outside for both to come out from the Bar and continued the argument. Questioning them the eligibility to live in America, he also challenged how they two are better than him, finally leading to the tragic incident.
