The Sadar Bazar police arrested a man on Thursday night on charge of assaulting a traffic police constable on Wednesday.
The accused has been identified as Nagaraj, a resident of Yermarus. The police said Nagaraj, Bhima, and Veeresh were riding a motorcycle when traffic police constable Tippanna tried to stop them for triple-riding, near Vanivilas Medical Store in the city. The accused speeded, forcing the constable to chase them.
The trio attacked the constable near Hamdard School and ran away. A case was registered at Sadar Bazar police.
“We have collected information about the whereabouts of the other two who are absconding,” K.H. Dadavali, police sub-inspector, told The Hindu .
