Bengaluru Police reacts to viral video of man trying to break into woman’s car

A Bengaluru-based woman had a terrifying experience after a man attempted to break into her car. As a video of the incident went viral on social media, Bengaluru Police reacted, saying that necessary action will be taken against the man.
The short clip, which was posted by the X account Karnataka Portfolio, claimed that the incident took place near the Marathahalli Bridge service road.
According to the post, the girl was waiting at the spot when the man approached her car. Since she was alone, he allegedly attempted to open all the four doors of the vehicle but failed to do so since they were locked.
“A girl was waiting near the Marathahalli bridge service road when a man approached her car. He noticed she was alone and tried to open all four doors but couldn’t because they were locked,” the viral post said.
As she recorded the unsettling moment, the man moved to the passenger side and tried to break the window. The woman, thereafter, fled from the spot as she had a narrow escape from what could have landed her in a dangerous situation.
“As she started recording the situation, he moved to her right side and attempted to break the window. Realizing the danger, she quickly started the car and drove away.”
The viral post, which included the video of the incident, aimed to warn others, particularly women, to stay vigilant.
“She (the woman) wanted to share this experience to warn other women to stay vigilant and ensure their safety in similar situations. Always lock your doors and trust your instincts,” the caption of the post reads.
