A video from HSR Layout, Bengaluru, shows a physical altercation between two girls/women and an auto-rickshaw driver that circulates widely online. The clip depicts the parties exchanging blows on a roadside before another woman intervenes to stop the fight.
According to police outreach reported by outlets, officers contacted the two women after the video spread on social media and ask them to file a formal complaint. One outlet says the women did not immediately appear when contacted and sought time before approaching the police station, while authorities indicate they will act once a complaint is filed.
The accounts of what triggered the confrontation differ. The auto driver alleges that the women refused to pay the fare after a ride was booked and that he was assaulted first, prompting him to retaliate. Another reported claim is that the dispute escalated after arguments over the fare. While social media discussions focus on the incident, outlets also note that the full sequence is not confirmed publicly and remains based on statements from those involved.
