In a troubling incident in Bengaluru’s Marathahalli area, a woman narrowly avoided an attempted carjacking while waiting in her vehicle. A video circulating on social media shows a man approaching her car and trying to open all four doors, only to find them locked.
As pedestrians walked by and vehicles passed on the busy street, the woman recorded the man’s actions. He then shifted to the passenger side, attempting to break the window, which was also captured on video. In a quick-thinking move, the woman started her car and drove away to safety.
The incident highlights the need for vigilance, especially among women. The woman has since shared her experience on social media to raise awareness about personal safety, emphasizing the importance of locking car doors and trusting one’s instincts in potentially dangerous situations.
