In a road rage incident, a 41-year-old businessman, half of his body dangling from the window, was dragged over two kilometres at Vile Parle, after a fight took place between the victim and the accused on Thursday night. Following a complaint by the businessman, who has fractured his leg, apart from injuries on hand, the Vile Parle police have registered a case. No arrest has been made so far.
The victim, Rushabh Jaykant Shah, a resident of Goregaon West, told mid-day, “The incident took place on Western Express Highway near Santacruz around 10 pm on Thursday when I was returning home from BKC. There was heavy traffic at Vakola signal. I saw an open space ahead and moved my car there. Meanwhile, another car was also trying to get to the spot from the right side, but could not. The driver then followed me and told me to take my car to the side. When I complied, he started abusing me. When I tried to reason with him, he did not listen and threatened me saying he was from some social anti-crime team.”
