At 3:15 pm Sarangal was going to Balachaur from his official residence. As he approached Langroya, he saw a Maruti Swift Dzire car hitting two persons on a scooter near a petrol pump and fleeing the spot.

The deputy commissioner asked his driver to follow the Maruti Dzire. The car was finally stopped after a 2-km chase. He asked the police to take necessary action against the driver of the car. He also asked the medical staff at a local hospital to ensure quality treatment to the injured persons. Sarangal said it was his moral duty to help those who were in need.
