A late-night brawl broke out near Himalaya Mall in Vastrapur, Ahmedabad, after a drunken driver caused an accident and subsequently attacked members of the public. The incident occurred in the early hours of March 25, when the driver, reportedly under the influence of alcohol, rammed his vehicle into other cars on the busy road.  

Following the accident, a crowd quickly gathered at the scene. Instead of cooperating, the intoxicated driver turned aggressive and got into a scuffle with the locals. Upon receiving the information, the police rushed to the spot. However, when officers attempted to control the situation, the driver allegedly attacked the police as well, reportedly picking up a stone in an attempt to assault them.  

The police immediately apprehended the accused. Two separate cases have been registered against him, one for driving under the influence of alcohol and another for assaulting the public and police officers.  

Police officials confirmed that they are investigating the background of the accused, including where he had been consuming alcohol before the incident. "Strict action will be taken against such unruly behaviour, especially when it endangers public safety," a senior officer stated. Further investigation is underway.
