Noida, June 3
What began as a petty online squabble spiralled into a terrifying act of violence on the streets of Noida, as a man allegedly attempted to mow down another with a high-speed SUV.
The shocking incident, which took place in Sector 53 under the Sector-24 police station limits, was captured on camera and has since gone viral, sparking public outrage.
According to ADCP, Noida, Sumit Kumar Shukla, the altercation started from a comment made on Instagram.
“Both individuals involved were known to each other. The disagreement began online but escalated dangerously on June 2,” Shukla said.
The disturbing video footage shows a group of young men engaged in a heated argument, which quickly turns into a brawl. Moments later, one of the assailants jumps into a black Thar and, in a chilling act of retaliation, speeds toward his rival and rams into him with full force.
The impact was so brutal that the victim was flung off the road into a nearby drain. Locals who witnessed the horrifying scene rushed to the youth’s aid and transported him to a nearby hospital. He is currently undergoing treatment, and his condition remains critical.
