Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara), R Sathiya Sundaram said, at around 8.55 am, staff of the Krishna Nagar police station patrolling in civil clothes saw two boys wearing helmets suspiciously roaming in the area. Their motorcycle had no rear-side number plate.
On suspicion, the police party intercepted the bike. But as the cops removed the key from their bike, both the accused tried to flee the spot. The cops were able to apprehend Ishmail, but Iliyash managed to escape brandishing his pistol at the police team.
After a hot chase by the cops, the culprit managed to jump over to the campus of a nearby government school. On entering the school, he terrorised the guards and school students. However, the police team acted swiftly and apprehended him.
