A few days ago, three youths on a bike fired in the air and tried to snatch a bag containing Rs 36 lakh from a man, but the criminal could not succeed, because the youth boldly confronted them.The police are yet to arrest any of the criminals.
Similarly, the cops could not work out the case in which some youths snatched gold chain from a woman in a alley near Jain temple in the city.
