Woman fakes accident, tries to fleece car driver

BENGALURU: An unidentified woman tried to fake an accident by stopping a moving car in the middle of the road on Thursday night near Bishop Cotton Junction.

Problem at multiple levels. Is it due to unplanned growth? Economic disparity? Advanced con jobs? Suicidal behavior? Mental instability? In any case, a dashcam is a must in #Bengaluru. pic.twitter.com/P0IWjUe4av
