In a deeply disturbing incident in Patna’s Punpun market, a police team responding to a domestic disturbance call was attacked, leading to the physical assault of a woman constable. The shocking episode has sparked concern over the growing trend of attacks on law enforcement officers during field duties.

According to reports, Constable Neha Kumari, posted at Punpun police station, had gone with fellow officers to investigate a reported altercation in a residence. Upon arrival, they witnessed a woman, identified as Dimple Kumari, allegedly assaulting a man.

Police Intervention Turns Violent

Despite attempts by officers to de-escalate the situation, Dimple reportedly became aggressive towards the police team. When Constable Neha intervened, the accused physically assaulted her—tearing her uniform and inflicting injuries by biting her. Other officers who stepped in were also reportedly attacked.

An FIR has been registered at the Punpun police station against Dimple Kumari, wife of Rahul Kumar from the Kalabagan area. Authorities confirmed that the woman fled the scene following the attack. A manhunt is underway, and officials have assured that she will be arrested soon.
