A gun battle in Ghaziabad between police and two robbers, who were allegedly running away with a car, ended with the security personnel arresting one of them late last night.
The gun battle left one robber and a policeman injured, while the other robber fled away.
Both of them are currently undergoing treatment in the district hospital.
"We chased two robbers after we got information of a car robbery. One robber managed to flee after the gun battle. We have nabbed the other one," Senior Superintendent of Police Ashish Srivastava said.
The incident took place when the two robbers injured the driver and took the car in their possession.
The injured driver informed the police, who then barged into action.
After overpowering one of the robbers, the police recovered the car and a pistol.
Meanwhile, the police are carrying on with further investigation to nab the other accused.
