Ahmedabad Man Injured in Road Rage Attack on CG Road
A 41-year-old man sustained injuries after being attacked with a sharp weapon in a road rage incident on CG Road in Ahmedabad on Thursday morning. The Navrangpura police have registered a complaint against an autorickshaw driver and another accused in connection with the assault.
Details of the Incident
According to the First Information Report (FIR), the victim, identified as Navdeep Gadhvi, a resident of Amraiwadi who works for a private firm, was traveling to his office on his two-wheeler at approximately 9:30 AM. While heading from CG Road towards the Wagh Bakri junction, he observed an autorickshaw being driven erratically in a zigzag manner, narrowly avoiding collisions with other vehicles.
Gadhvi overtook the autorickshaw and objected to the driver's rash driving, as stated by police officials. The driver reportedly stopped the vehicle near the junction, after which he and a co-passenger exited and began arguing with Gadhvi.
Assault and Aftermath
The accused allegedly started abusing the complainant and issuing threats. When Gadhvi protested, the co-passenger purportedly pulled out a sharp weapon and attacked him, resulting in injuries on the upper right side of his waist. Both accused fled the scene immediately after the assault.
Passers-by alerted emergency services, and Gadhvi was transported to a hospital via a 108 ambulance. He is currently undergoing treatment and is reported to be conscious.
Police Action
The Navrangpura police have booked the accused under charges including assault, criminal intimidation, and causing hurt using a weapon. The investigation is ongoing to apprehend the suspects.
