It happened on February 2, 1966, the weather on this day was as solemn as the atmosphere of the meeting, Premier Zhou and leaders from all walks of life gathered in the Great Hall of the People, everyone also knew that the meeting specifications were extremely high, and the security work was naturally meticulous
Just as everyone was concentrating on discussing national affairs, an accident happened! After the meeting, a waitress was cleaning on the second floor, and suddenly found a hole in the window glass, which frightened her, and quickly reported to the security personnel, and then, the security personnel went to the scene to see, in addition to the two layers of thickened glass were pierced, there was a bullet lying on the ground intact

This is not a trivial matter, it alarmed Premier Zhou, he immediately rushed to the scene, saw this strange scene, his face suddenly changed, only to see him with a serious face, "This is just nonsense!" So many people didn't hear the gunshots? If these two layers of glass can't block it, the consequences are really unimaginable! He was angry at the omission
As the investigation unfolded, everyone fell into a tense and solemn atmosphere, Vice Minister of Public Security Yu Sang was designated to be responsible for the investigation of the case, he took the expert group to analyze the evidence one by one, through careful investigation, the experts found that the caliber of the bullet was 56 mm, and our militia at that time could commonly use this weapon

The investigation team quickly focused their attention on Chang'an Avenue, which was directly opposite the Great Hall of the People, after all, they felt that the angle of view there was wide and the location of the shooting was logical, but you never imagined that this Chang'an Avenue could be a high-security area, and they were like eagles preying to monitor the surrounding area to avoid any abnormalities
So, the investigators began to comprehensively investigate all the people and vehicles entering and leaving the street, paying special attention to the police and militia who may be carrying guns, and here a small episode occurred, a military truck passing by the Beijing Institute of Geology came into view, this car was loaded with 42 rifles or something! Exactly matches the bullet model!

But the next investigation was quite embarrassing, the police carefully studied and found that these guns had not been used, and the soldiers in the car did not bring bullets, the clues were broken at once, and the investigation entered a dead end, and everyone was anxious
At this moment, a young police officer came up with a new idea: if we don't think about it from another angle, the person who fired the shot may not be on Chang'an Avenue at all, but even farther away! These words made everyone stop what they were doing and start pondering

The young police officer carefully examined the cave of the broken glass and found that they were not aligned, which meant that the bullet had lost a lot of energy after passing through the first layer of glass, and the power was greatly reduced, and if the shot was fired farther, the wind could also cause the bullet to deviate from its trajectory
Therefore, the police expanded the scope of the investigation and began to investigate the residential area behind Chang'an Avenue, which is about 400 meters away, forming a mysterious distance relationship with the Great Hall of the People, and after unremitting efforts, the police finally found a resident with a rifle imported from the Czech Republic, the caliber is exactly 56 mm, and their attention was immediately focused on this resident

After investigation, the owner of the gun turned out to be the son of Li Da, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Sports Commission at the time, and the teenager, 16 years old, seemed a little helpless in the face of this terrible incident, he told the police: "I just wanted to shoot the bird in the sky, but I didn't expect the bullet to fly to the Great Hall of the People!" ”
At this moment, all the investigators were speechless, and after thinking about it carefully, yes, this kid and his friends were playing a bird hunting competition on the roof of the building, but they didn't expect that with a shake of their hands, the bullets would fly so far, which was like an absurd drama of the Arabian Nights, which had to make people laugh

After the truth of the matter was revealed, although the boy had no malicious intent, his "bird fighting incident" did expose the lax management of firearms in the society at that time, and the vigilance of the people who had to improve their safety awareness, Premier Zhou made a decision to severely criticize and educate the teenager's behavior, and asked him to swear never to do it again in the future
Although the whole incident was successfully resolved, it reminded the government at the time that safety is very important and cannot be taken lightly, and then the government carried out a comprehensive inventory of guns in residential areas, strictly regulated shooting behavior in urban areas, and tried to ensure that similar accidents do not happen again
