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.

In response to the viral video and growing public concern, police swiftly registered a case and launched an investigation. “Three dedicated teams have been deployed to trace and arrest the accused,” said ADCP Shukla. “We’ve also initiated the process to seize the vehicle used in the attack,” he said.

Authorities have urged citizens not to fall for misinformation circulating on social media. “We appeal to the public to avoid rumours and report any relevant information to the police immediately,” the ADCP added.

Citizens are demanding stricter measures to prevent such brazen acts of violence on public roads. The incident has once again exposed the volatile mix of online aggression spilling into real-world brutality.
