In a shocking incident, a bus driver, who refused to pay toll tax, tried to crush a manager deployed on duty under the wheels when asked to stop the vehicle in Gurgaon.

The incident took place on Sunday afternoon when the bus, belonging to a private city bus service, reached the Kherki Daula toll plaza here. The toll collector present at one of the booths asked the driver to pay the toll of Rs 60, but instead the driver refused to pay and tried to flee.

On seeing that the driver was trying to flee without paying, the toll manager signalled the former to stop but he tried to crush him under the wheels.

The toll manager, however, managed to jump aside during the course.

The incident was also captured on CCTV. The police are now examining the footage and are trying to nab the accused.
