Even the higher police authorities raised alarm and alerted cops at all the police stations. Later three trucks were used to block the road at Manewada Square leading the car to screeching halt. It turned out that two of the passengers in the car were the guests who had visited the city to attend a marriage ceremony at Kadbi Square here. The driver and another accused hails from Nagpur.
