For once, it looked like, the thieves were planning to steal the SUV. Suddenly, couple of police officers enter the same road. It seems like they are on their routine duty. As soon as the thief spots the officers, he hides behind the SUV. Police stops in front of the SUV and looks around if everything is right or not. After that they move ahead. Once they had gone, thief comes out and pulls a KTM RC model bike from the parking. By this time, the officers come back and catch the thief red handed.
The thief tries to escape with the bike and the officers were trying to get a good hold of him. He hits the KTM on to the officers bike and to the SUV parked nearby. He then drags the police officers with the bike and finally falls after losing control. One of the officer can be seen holding the leg tightly while the other tries to immobilize him. They contact a nearby PCR and the van comes to the spot within minutes. It is not known whether they had caught other members of the gang who had dropped him at the spot. The two cops definitely did a great job in catching this thief.
