Balasore: A differently abled youth was detained by the police for allegedly stealing a passenger bus from the bus stand in Balasore district on Monday night.
The accused hails from Jagatsinghpur district.
According to information, the youth opened the lock of the bus with ‘Hadeswar’ written on it and started driving towards Cuttack. He was, however, intercepted near Sergarh by the toll gate employees who asked him for road tax. They called the police when he refused to pay the tax and picked up an argument with them.
A team from the Khantapara police station rushed to the spot and detained the youth. The police came to know the accused is differently abled after he failed to answer their questions during interrogation.
