“After a complaint was filed on Friday, we arrested him with the help of the bike’s registration number. On Thursday, the school bus accidentally hit his bike and it was damaged. The school bus driver asked the accused to meet the bus owner and take compensation. However, the man returned the next day and pelted stones,” said Kalyan Karpe, senior police inspector, Bhoiwada police station.

“The next day, the driver was on leave. As we reached Somnagar Masjid, the man stopped our bus by parking ahead. He then started throwing stones at the school bus,” said Choudhary.
