Hyderabad: Indiranagar locality in Bengaluru city seems to have been gripped by a scare after four persons were attacked by a person for no apparent reason on Saturday night for no apparent reason. The victims are undergoing treatment and are reported to be out of danger.
The assailant was in his mid-20s and wearing a red T shirt, white pants and a black cap. The modus operandi employed was that the assailant slashed the victims on their necks. The apparent conclusion was that the attacks were meant to kill.
