“While the locals called police, the boy who had been caught also made a couple of calls to his friends and about a dozen of them soon arrived in a car,” the officer said.

Police said the group the reportedly began abusing and hitting the locals who had caught their friend.

According to police, five residents suffered injuries during the incident and managed to flee the spot.

“We have traced at least two persons involved in the incident but no arrests have been made as they are absconding,” the officer added.

The residents alleged inaction on the local police’s part.

Police said investigations into the matter were under way.
