Similar incident case reported in Shimla
In a similar incident, a road rage case in Matiana near Shimla has raised concerns about rising aggressive behaviour on roads. Two tourists from Uttar Pradesh were arrested after a dispute over overtaking turned violent on National Highway-5.
The accused allegedly assaulted a local man, and the situation worsened when they reportedly tried to threaten people with what looked like a pistol. However, police later clarified that the object was actually a lighter designed to resemble a firearm.
Police in both cases have taken action and investigations are underway. While the Shimla accused have been arrested, Lucknow Police are still probing the viral video.
