New Delhi (The Hawk): In West Delhi's Rajouri Garden, a young person stole a 31-year-old woman's phone. The young person was pursued and apprehended. However, according to a Tuesday official, one more suspect was able to escape.

Two males on a grey scooter approached her as she approached Mehta Chowk in Rajouri Garden, and while she was on the phone with her phone, they took it. The snatchers were violent despite Ruchi's attempts to cling on to the phone, according to Bansal.
A bystander was stopped by Ruchi, who asked him to assist her in pursuing the offender. He assisted her in pursuing the two. At the C-Block, Tagore Garden Extension, the robbers also succeeded in stealing another mobile phone from Arvind Kumar Singh.
