Uttam Adsul, attached to Thane police headquarters, was walking his dog after coming home from duty last evening when one Sachin Shedge allegedly hit him from behind, said police PRO Sukhada Narkar.
Adsul was undergoing treatment.
Shedge has been booked under various sections of IPC by Khadakpada police under Kalyan division.
No arrest has been made in this connection, the PRO said, adding that the motive behind the attack was still being ascertained.
An on-duty traffic policeman died early this month, days after he was hit on head allegedly by a biker in suburban Khar following an argument over violation of traffic rules.
