Rat bites shooter

INDIAN shooter Sanjeev Rajput is blaming the sharp teeth of a rodent for robbing him of his shot at glory at next month's Commonwealth Games. The 29-year-old was perceived as a medal prospect for the Games in New Delhi but failed to make the squad after a poor show at the trials. "I was staying in the camp hostel in Pune where a rat bit me in the night. I did not take any chances and immediately visited the doctor. He gave me anti-rabies shots and soon I was running a high fever," Rajput said.
