Truck hijacked

Jhajjar

Seven car-borne youths forcibly took away a loaded truck on pistol point near Kulana village on the Jhajjar-Rewari road last night.

According to a police spokesman, the miscreants on a Maruti car intercepted the truck, which was coming from Kota in Rajasthan, by blocking the road. Some of them entered the truck driver’s cabin and instructed him to follow the car by putting a pistol on his head.

The owner of the truck, Shanker, told the police that the robbers threw the driver out of the truck near Sampla and decamped with the truck. The police are investigating the matter.
