Detained Man Sprints Away from Police Vehicle in MP, Video Goes Viral

Bhopal/Hoshangabad: A bizarre incident of a detained man escaping from police custody has gone viral on social media, leaving both police personnel and netizens stunned. The dramatic escape, reminiscent of a Bollywood action scene, is believed to have taken place on the outskirts of Hoshangabad in Madhya Pradesh, though the exact location is yet to be officially confirmed.

The widely circulated video shows a police vehicle parked on the roadside, with a few policemen apparently engaged in repair work. In the meantime, the accused is seen calmly opening the gate of the vehicle, spotting a clear passage and suddenly breaking into a sprint, barefoot, along the road.

Despite attempts by the policemen to chase him, they failed to catch up, allowing the man to vanish from the spot. Commuters and onlookers at the scene appeared amused and astonished by the unexpected turn of events, with several capturing the moment on their mobile phones.

The high-speed escape on a public road looked more like a movie sequence than a routine police operation, prompting social media users to flood the comment sections with jokes and memes. Many remarked that the scene only lacked slow motion shots and dramatic dialogues to complete the ‘filmy’ effect.

The incident has triggered widespread curiosity, with netizens urging the Madhya Pradesh Police to clarify the circumstances behind the escape. Questions are being raised about whether the man was a serious criminal and whether he was later recaptured.

So far, the police have not issued any official statement on the matter. Further details are awaited.
