The Morning Standard
|June 30, 2025
A robbery attempt on the Visakha Express was foiled by the alert escort police, who opened fire in the air to scare away a gang near Tummalacheruvu village in Palnadu district in the early hours of Sunday.
According to the Railway Police, two unidentified miscreants pulled the alarm chain around 3.30 am, bringing the train to an unscheduled halt. When the escort police personnel got down from the train to look into the cause, the gang hurled stones at them, and fled into the nearby fields.
