"A bullet whizzed past my ear. When I turned around, I saw that I had been shot in the shoulder," he said.

The policeman said it felt like there were more than four attackers. "They kept firing every five minutes. It was as if the ground was shaking," he said.

The terrorists are believed to crossed over the border at Hiranagar in Jammu before heading to Gurdaspur.

Before they attacked the Dinanagar police station, the terrorists opened fire at a bus in the town, killing a passenger.

Five live bombs have also been found on railway tracks between Dinanagar and Pathankot.
