A 26-year old man was allegedly attacked with an iron rod by a woman when their vehicles rammed into each other on Wednesday.

The woman, identified as Sheetal Sharma, was reversing her car recklessly when the victim's car came from the opposite direction and smashed her vehicle.

The incident was reported from the Tribune Chowk area of the city.

The victim Nitish, who drove a Maruti Suzuki Santro, has been recognized as a resident of Sector 29 locality.

He stated that he drove from a nearby roundabout to the road where the girl was allegedly rash driving.

The Police Control Vans reached the crime spot and a case has been registered from the 'Industrial Area' police station.

The girl was arrested shortly after the incident and will be soon produced in the court.
