A man is arrested in Bengaluru after a video showing him flashing a dagger in public and allegedly threatening people goes viral online, police say. The incident comes after the footage circulates on social media on September 19, causing panic among members of the public.
Police state that the man is seen riding a two-wheeler while carrying weapons in the video. According to the reporting, the behaviour is treated as an attempt to harm or kill others, prompting the arrest. The sources describe the episode as a public safety incident linked to online dissemination of the clip.
Both reports focus on the same sequence of events: the viral posting of the video, the resulting public concern, and police action leading to arrest. They do not provide additional details in the provided excerpts on charges, the man’s identity, or the specific circumstances of the alleged threat beyond the dagger display and the claim of an attempt to kill.
