Then all of a sudden, he went berserk and rammed into two booths.” “Police personnel arrested the driver, who belongs to Budaun, after chasing him for a few kms. An FIR was registered against him,” said Abhishek Verma, SP (Hapur).Four days ago, a speeding car ran over a 25-year-old toll staff at the same plaza leaving him critically injured.
