Two groups clashed and pelted each other with stones over an alleged eve-teasing incident at the Ramlila Tila locality here, police said Saturday.

According to SHO Anil Kapervan, the incident took place Friday evening and a police team was rushed to the spot to bring the situation under control.

The trouble started when a youth allegedly teased a woman, resulting in a protest by her family, police said.

In another incident, a man was arrested on the charge of eve-teasing. The incident took place at Shamli's Majra Road locality Friday, police said.
