Miscreants set 3 two wheelers ablaze at Pontemol-Curchorem

SANGUEN

Unknown miscreants set fire to three two-wheelers in the early morning hours on Wednesday, November 13, causing total damage to two vehicles while partially damaging another. Some other vehicles parked nearby were also affected.   

The vehicles were parked below Kakodkar building at Pontemol-Curchorem, which is barely half a kilometre away from the Curchorem Police Station.   

The vehicle owners informed that, some days back, unknown persons had stolen two tyres of a vehicle parked outside the building premises, while earlier there had been incidents of petrol going missing from two-wheelers parked overnight.   

Immediately after the incident was reported to the police, a team of officials from Curchorem Police Station rushed to the site and conducted a primary investigation. However, no arrests have been made as of now.   

Police sources informed that the exact amount of loss caused by the incident will be ascertained only after the RTO visits the site and submits its report.   

A resident whose vehicles were damaged in the incident stated that it is high time the police remain more vigilant in the area and arrest those involved at the earliest, as there is a possibility of such incidents being repeated.
