A dramatic chase unfolded in Assam's Nagaon district after a Scorpio allegedly hit a minor and fled the scene despite damaging one of its tyres. The incident occurred near Dhowa-Haldhiati on National Highway 36, as the vehicle was traveling from Karbi Anglong towards Kathiatoli. After the collision, the driver abandoned the Scorpio and continued driving, even as it was left with a severely damaged tyre.

The vehicle reportedly continued speeding for several kilometers, emitting sparks as it moved on the metal rim of the damaged tyre. Local residents and police pursued the Scorpio during the chase, which involved multiple intersections. Eventually, the vehicle was intercepted by police at Nonoi, where its registration number, AS02AA0150, was identified.

Following the interception, an agitated crowd gathered and damaged the Scorpio. The minor injured in the initial collision was taken to a nearby hospital for medical treatment. Police are now investigating the circumstances surrounding the hit-and-run, including the minor's condition, the subsequent escape, and any crashes involving other vehicles.
