Gwalior Sisters Chase Mobile Snatcher At 80 Kmph

Two sisters, Harshita and Rasita Agrawal, displayed exceptional courage and presence of mind by chasing and catching a mobile phone snatcher who tried to flee after stealing their phone in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh.

The incident took place in the Padav police station area when the sisters were on their way to college on a scooter. A bike-borne man approached them from behind and snatched the mobile phone from Rasita’s hand while she was sitting on the pillion seat.

Instead of stopping or raising an alarm, the sisters decided to chase the suspect. They followed him through busy roads from Sofa Gallery towards Phoolbagh and reportedly rode their scooter at a speed of around 80 kmph during the chase.

When the suspect reached near Phoolbagh, a tempo came in front of his bike. As he attempted to change direction and escape, the sisters rammed their scooter into his bike. The impact caused the suspect to lose balance and fall on the road.

The sisters quickly caught hold of him and raised an alarm. Hearing their cries, several locals gathered at the spot and helped restrain the suspect. He was then handed over to the police.

The suspect was identified as Manpreet, a native of Punjab. During interrogation, he told police that he had come to Gwalior only two days earlier and was working as a delivery boy with Domino’s. He allegedly committed the theft as he needed money to rent a room and planned to sell the stolen mobile phone to arrange funds.

A video of the incident is also going viral on social media, showing the two sisters holding the suspect by his collar and slapping him repeatedly. The girls are receiving praise from netizens for showing courage.

The Padav police station in-charge, Shailendra Bhargava, said the suspect is being questioned. Police are also contacting Punjab Police to verify whether he has any previous criminal record.

The incident highlights the growing instances of mobile phone snatchings in the city. However, the bravery and quick thinking of the two sisters have been widely appreciated.

The police have commended the sisters for their bravery and have assured that they will take necessary actions to prevent such incidents in the future.

The incident has also raised awareness about the importance of being vigilant and taking necessary precautions to prevent such crimes. The sisters' bravery has set an example for others to follow, and their actions have been widely praised by the public and the police alike.

In conclusion, the bravery and presence of mind shown by the two sisters in chasing and catching the mobile phone snatcher is commendable. Their actions have not only helped in catching the suspect but have also raised awareness about the importance of being vigilant and taking necessary precautions to prevent such crimes.
