Delhi: Minor among three held assaulting Faridabad family, vandalising car
New Delhi (PTI): Three people, including a minor, have been apprehended for allegedly assaulting a family from Faridabad and vandalising their car in southeast Delhi's Sangam Vihar, police said on Tuesday.
On Monday, Rampal and his family members were on their way to Kalkaji in a car but diverted towards G-Block, Sangam Vihar due to road repair work, they said.
The family got into a dispute with a motorcyclist over some issue and the situration escalated, during which the rider and five to six associates allegedly attacked the car occupants and started damaging the vehicle.
A video, purportedly of the incident, also surfaced on social media, in which a group can be seen dragging a man out of the car and assaulting him, even as women occupants remain seated inside.
