The police said that the police was checking every passing vehicle and at about 7.30 pm, one person riding a Honda Activa came from the Ring Road side. When the police signalled him to stop, he tried to slip through.
However, the picket checking staff chased him and overpowered him.
When the police asked him to produce his vehicler documents, he tried to give lame excuses.
